About the Author:
I was raised pretty much the same as everyone else... devoted mother, strict father and all the imaginary friends I could conjure. Not that I wasn't friendly, I just wasn't "people orientated". Maybe I lived in my head way more than I should have, maybe not. I liked machines more than people, at least I did until I met my wife.
The first thing I can remember writing was for her. For the life of me I can't remember what it was about... something about dust bunnies under the bed and monsters in my closet. It must have been pretty good because she
married me shortly after that. I spent a good number of years after inventing games and prototypes for a variety of ideas before I got back to writing.
married me shortly after that. I spent a good number of years after inventing games and prototypes for a variety of ideas before I got back to writing.
It wasn't a deliberate conscious thought, it was more of a stepping stone. My wife and I had joined a dream interpret group and we were encouraged to write down our dreams as they occurred. "Be as detailed as you can," we were told.
I was thrilled. If there is one thing I enjoy it's making people believe me and I like to exaggerate. Not a big exaggeration or an out right lie mine you, just a little step out of sync, just
enough so you couldn't be sure if it were true or not. When I write, I always write with the effort of "it could happen" very much in mind and nothing, I guarantee you, nothing, makes me happier.

Are you a SLIder ? Do you have H.V.S. ?
In my Sci-Fi Series… The Eve Project… Ben Harris is and does. He destroys any unshielded electronics, sets
fire to ATMs, coffee machines and unwittingly sends devastating arcs of
electricity to anything metal. He
suffers from B.C.E.D. He has spent his
entire life trying to hide his ailment from prying eyes.
What many readers are unaware of
is the fact that his condition is a real one.
In my book I called it B.C.E.D. or Bio-Chemical Electric Discharge to make it
sound more… interesting and official.
As it turns out, depending on the
severity of the condition it has two names.
The first and less life transforming is S.L.I. or Streetlight Interference. These poor souls
are often called SLIders. As you might
expect they affect streetlights, turning them off simply by walking under them only to have them
reignite after they pass.. In addition
they frequently do not wear watches or jewelry because their bodies generate
enough electricity to destroy them within a matter of days, making cameras and
cell phones out of the question. Research into the phenomena has been slow but
the little that has been done shows women hold a much higher static level than
men. Their bodies absorb more external electric charges. This is usually caused
by an Alkali-Acid imbalance. How is this
possible you ask ?? It is the by-product
of eating fresh fruit and vegetables ! Who Knew ?
For those that have passed the line
of humdrum static electricity there is H.V.S. or High Voltage Syndrome. This condition has ruined many a life,
ranging from starting fires shocking those that come to close and destroying
any metal object. Computers, microwaves, televisions, radios, light bulbs, and
the rest don’t stand a chance. They are completely destroyed without desire or
intention. And worse, many of the people
who are afflicted with this condition become magnetized. Metal objects cling to their body unwanted as
if they themselves have become a magnet. Others are able to push objects like
heavy furniture away from themselves with but a touch. Others are blamed for
haunting like experiences, making lights and appliances turn on and off by
themselves, things floating through mid-air with no desire intended. It has
been tied to a heightened psychic or telekinetic ability.
So if
you thought you had problems in your life that made you feel like you didn’t
fit in or like an outsider; consider these people and the lives they lead… do you have H.V.S. ?? Are you a SLIder ? Thank God everyday if you can say no !

Amazon Synopsis:
During that last summer, as if in punishment for being happy, Kate was diagnosed with cervical cancer.
The last time we used the wishing stone was at the hospital the morning she died.
