Facebook Fling

My new novel, Facebook, will touch a lot of lives. I didn't plan to write this book, it just kind of happened, but after Callii and I came into contact our story immediately began to unfold. This little book of fiction is based on a true story that happened just last year between the two of us. It is also mixed with the experiences of other friends, and of course a healthy dose of good old imagination. I couldn't have written this book without Callii any more than she could have written it without me, but we got together on Facebook and things heated up very quickly. I reached out to her and she reached back to me and our hearts touched. Our poignant chats went on for several months as we learned more and more about the people we had become. We were very different, she and I. She was the Black Widow, a woman who had married multiple times, and then had ended up alone. Though hardened by life's experience, she still had a heart of gold. And I was the faithful husband, a dependable spouse in a turbulent marriage who had weathered the tempests of life over the last thirty plus years. But, and much to our surprise, our personalities dovetailed perfectly. She was so nice and so fun to talk to, and amazingly, she liked me back. We were just two lonely people, becoming newly reacquainted and coming back together after all these many years. And now that we have, we're so glad that we did.
