Paranormal
When thirteen year old Taylor dies in an 'accidental' fire, her close friends are devastated. But, behind the scenes, there was one special girl that was closer to Taylor than anyone else could ever imagine. Liz and Taylor had a special connection. Taylor knew a big secret about Liz, so they had bonded over it. Taylor needed Liz and Liz needed Taylor. When Taylor passes away, Liz goes into deep depression because of it. She had no one to save her now. But every year on her death date, Liz always gets some type of sign from her. Maybe it's just a little whisper or a random object moving out of place. But, on Liz's seventeenth birthday, the last thing she ever expected was to see her again. But, it looks like a birthday wish can come true after all.

Ghosts of People Past begins with a series of mysterious events that happen to fifty-year-old Nora one snowy night in a remote mountain village of Western Macedonia, Greece. Upon returning home from a cousin’s funeral, she finds an email on her computer from the Algerian archaeology student she once nearly loved to death. This triggers off a surge of memories and reopens unresolved issues with her past, the closure she never got and the guilty secrets she has harbored. With the help of a bottle of whisky and her resurrected cat, she begins to dust off her memories and starts to write her life story determined to finish it in one night before it is too late. From Boston to Thessaloniki and from Rome to Algeria she narrates the events of her life that stigmatized her forever: her expulsion from her home in Boston by her parents, the cultural shock of moving to Greece, her doomed love for a Muslim student in the hard and gloomy years of the Greek dictatorship in Greece. Her communication with her ex-boyfriend via MSN unravels on a second plane of narration and leads to dramatic revelations which force Nora to face a past she has spent years struggling to forget. The dimensions of time mesh in a strange game of alternating reality and fantasy right up to the books cathartic end. You can find me at:
