Oh shit, now what?
k, so yesterday shortly after my little rant… or better yet, best posed as self-expression… I did something that hasn't seemed possible lately. Can you guess what that was? Come now, surely if you are like me (which by yesterday's stats, many of you are) what is something you probably haven't done in a while? Think. What is the unthinkable?
I shut off my computer!
Not only did I shut it off, indeed I walked away from it.
Gasp!
I know!
Can you imagine?
I must admit. It was difficult at first. I mean,

"We could desire and deny all in the same breath." Leo in Courage of Fear, Barbara Boyer
Leo's, a character in Courage of Fear, poem to his unrequited love, the protagonist Angela– stating indeed "one can desire and deny all in the same breath."
Human Decision
The world disappears around you
when you look me in the eyes.
A warmth inside like summer
ignites the soul's internal skies.
A presence so powerful
I feel my breath slip away.
For it no longer holds importance
where the two souls dare play.
It's as if
they have a plan
of their own
where you
and I
only dream
to go.
They know each other

Books In Sync Interviews Author Barbara Boyer
Barbara Resides In Carlsbad , CA USA
Tell us what makes you proud to be a writer from Carlsbad, CA? I don't' suppose I have ever thought of this. I am not sure if I actually picked this area to live or if it picked me. I just rode the wind and here I am. After my daughter made her way into law school I made my way to San Diego to pursue my screenwriting career. Financially San Diego is a difficult place to live if you are a starving artist, yet the ene

“Love is always real. It belongs to the giver. It does not mean it did not exist if it was not received.” Courage of Fear
“Love is always real. It belongs to the giver. It does not mean it did not exist if it was not received.” Courage of Fear, Barbara Boyer
This by far is one of my greatest of all enlightenment and therefore one of my most prized quotes from my novel, Courage of Fear. It had been, and sometimes still can be, the one area of a serene life that causes me the most pain and indeed the most pleasure (can one have one without the other?)… and like so many other things, I find a common bond there with ma

Courage of Fear Quote: Physical Manifestation
“When we find that one person, that one love, we have found the physical manifestation of our Creator.”
Good Morning all:
When first reading this philosophy of relationships I thought it sacrilege really. I mean it had always been my understanding that if I put anything between me and god I would surely lose it. Yet as I dug deeper, read more about this philosophy, something wonderful began to unfold for me.
It all happened when I lost “the one”, or whom I perceived to be the one. There I sat, ball
