Jayelle Drewry:
WRITTEN IN THE STARS, an erotic story, is free on Jayelle's
site. “Written in the Stars follows the romance of Sophia Love
and Ethan James. They were dating and until Sophia uttered the
three words of doom, "I love you." At that point Ethan runs for
the life of his bachelorhood. It takes less than a week for the
guy to realize he's made a terrible mistake. Now he has to
convince Sophia to talk to him and give him another chance. I
got the idea for this story while scanning the horoscope section
of the paper. Some of them sound like the plot of a romance
novel. So I decided to write a story based on the main
character’s horoscope. The story begins with a weekly horoscope
that outlines Sophia’s romance potential and each day begins
with a daily horoscope predicting what will happen that day in
her love life. I had a lot of fun writing the story. I hope you
enjoy reading it."

Alexander Murphy bit out a dry laugh as he hustled
up the shoveled walk to his townhouse and closed the door on his
young and extremely off-key neighbor. If the kid really thought bad
singing would make his Christmas wish come true, then he could go
ahead and sing a wish for him. A faerie godmother with a tongue so
magical it would make him forget all about his work problems sounded
about right. Read on at....

JANEAN
NUSZ
RTR reviewer
Janean Nusz has several short stories and excerpts for you to enjoy
on her site at
http://www.authorsart.com/readingcorner.html. Science
Fiction, Young Adult, Christmas, non-fiction, historical western --
a bit of everything.
A little about Janean:
I am a freelance writer, graphic designer, instructor, book reviewer
and computer troubleshooting specialist.
I write fiction under three different pennames, in the genres of
speculative fiction, romance, sci-fi, fantasy, YA and children's
illustrated. My personal favorite? YA, though I do take great
delight in combining the genres to produce fantastical romances.
Myths and legends have always held a certain fascination for me,
which is why you'll find my stories populated by gryphons and
gargoyles, vampires and werewolves, and even the occasional troll.
I also write non-fiction articles, reviews and essays, having over
50 pieces - both online and in print - currently published. I think
I can attribute my love of writing to the hours that I spent reading
as a child.
When I'm not writing, illustrating or working with a computer, I
also dabble in photography, outdoor recreation and yoga.
Additionally, I also teach adult education classes on the subjects
of computers and digital technology, read piles of books, and enjoy
spending time with my family.
