Author bio:
My life is split. The first part (the majority) was spent as a Professor of Special Education at James Madison University where I trained teachers to work with students with disabilities. I wrote two professional books. I authored "Teaching Reading to Struggling Learners," and co-authored "Academic Success Strategies for Adolescents with Learning Disabilities and ADHD" which has been translated into French and Korean. Upon retirement, I began writing novels which is more taxing intellectually than writing textbooks, and much more fun. There's just no way to include sex scenes in a book on teaching reading! However, the thought of my children reading such scenes is a bit worrisome. I have completed two novels, the first "Dirty Genes" has just been published by the miraculous technology afforded by Smashwords.

He has just finished a new novel, AN AMERICAN FABLE, and will soon publish BLOOD NEVER DRIES. Reviews of BENJAMIN GRABBED HIS GLICKEN AND RAN: from Library Journal: "One hopes BENJAMIN won't be dismissed as just another offbeat experimental novel. It is an exciting book!" from Publishers Weekly: "...Benjamin's personal story is wild, with an extraordinary made-up language and a pun-on-pun series of sentences... The novel builds to a strong, dramatic climax and the effect is chilling." from The Christian Science Monitor: "Like a child of Zeus sprung full grown from the head of their creator ... this novel has not received the attention it deserves... The novel is operating simultaneously on three planes and finally on a fourth. Benjamin as a character is oddly captivating ... virtuosic ... exacting descriptions of Benjamin's room, physical sensations, and emotions are like a zoom lens bringing one in intensely close to him. Benjamin says of his Mysteries: 'Words are only a small portion of my life... They are weak technicalities which fail... Words are only words. And besides, I lie a lot.'

21 Cancellati by Barbara Rayne 21 Cancellati by Barbara Rayne Feb. 03, 2012 $5.99 19878 words Sample 20%
Author bio:
As an urban child, my getaway from the noise and fast pace was escaping into the world of imagination. Is there any better place than books? My imaginary characters had everything I never could. I ran with them, changed the world, traveled across the magical unknown planets and waited for some better era to arrive. Today, I know one can change so little. But, reading the kind of fiction I write, one can recognize the present in the future, sense the loop which they plan to, with a smile, wrap around one's neck. One can make that crucial step not to be in the line while they wrap it around other people's necks. I want to show what the world might become if don't notice the traps on the road that are being placed by the ones who have that power. I'm taking you on my path that takes courage to face the imperfections of the world we're living in now and preparing you that it could be even worse if we do not expose it. I love challenges, do you?

A wind blown ripple in a slightly acidic pool of water on the supercontinent of Paranachia in the early Devonerovian era resulted in the molecular fusion of several prebiotic elements into the first chain of self replicating rhino nucleic acid, the precursor of all subsequent self replicating matter on the planet earth. This led to the development of the first unicellular lifeforms which ------- um, this bio, now that I think of it, might be bit too detailed. I'll get back to ya. Till then – the stories - love and romance in unusual or forbidden circumstance, perhaps at times a study of or search for limits (though I generally try to leave the conclusions to you). Some eroticism though more of an imaginative or speculative sort rather than blatantly descriptive eroticism with no other point to it.
