About Me:: I read too much.

I Am A:: Reader, Writer

Website:: http://meisky.com/soapbox

Books And Authors I Like:: I feel put on the spot not to pick something too pedestrian, but really, I read like a horse grazing in a field- I'll take a nibble of anything. Adore Owen Parry- does he count in this genre? William Lashner is a new favorite, and of course I've been a Jon Loomis fan since...1974, I think.

Movies And TV Shows I Like:: Don't watch a lot of TV or movies- I avoid "reality shows" like the plague, but I'll tune in for a new episode of "Monk" or "The Closer" or "Saving Grace" and I loved the old Inspector Morse series, and "The Last Precinct" on PBS.

Square peg in round hole

I tried to submit a... I"ll call it an essay that I wrote to my newspaper's "Readers Writings forum... and it was so restrictive on space that I had to chop the guts out of what was already a really short story and decided to pass. I suppose I"m just too gabby, but I don't usually write that short! Other than a woman's magazine (oik! Am I really that old and dull?)

Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”

Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."

Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"

Book Synopsis:

The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.

Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.

The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.

There's no such thing as too much reading, um, unless it adversely affects personal hygiene, job performance . . . you know, that kind of thing.
