Hello everyone, First of all I just wanted to say Thanks to all of you who have supported by page.   I really am thankful to all my followers! I am excited to share some very exciting news.  For the past seven months I have been working on my very first solo Novella which I have titled, " Closure".

Hello everyone, I wanted to share a tease of my upcoming book which I am working very hard on:  This is my WIP: I hope you enjoy! Shades of a Battered Mind  by Sylvia Stein  Chapter 1   “ The Normal Life “ As I lie here holding on to my sanity.   I have to say never in a million years would I have thought all would turn out the way it did.   You see for most of my life I had been searching and hoping that one day I would find the one  and be able to finally lead a “ normal life.”  However nothing could be farther from the truth.  My name is Sadie Martin Carlyle and  on May 27, 2010 I was charged with the murder of my husband Dante Carlyle.   The thing that makes this so horrific is that  I do not even remember  committing the crime.    All I know is that when I awoke the next morning,  My husband Dante was dead and I was found  next to his body and the murder weapon.   As of now all I can do is await my trial which will not be for a few months.   Sadly

Justice For Ana.. Part One: Hello my name is Alondra Castillo and in 1994 my younger sister Ana and numerous other women were murdered here in The City of Juarez Mexico.   My sister Ana decided to work in the Maquila Industry, and had to ride the local Bus to and from work everyday.  I still recall my beautiful sister.  She was so full of life and wanted to one day save enough money to attend school and make a better life for herself. Tragically, that dream never came a reality.   However, after her death I made a promise to her and those numerous other women that I would make all those involved pay for their crimes.  I decided that this was the  only way not to give in to the submission of authority that the
