Hello. I'm writer Antoinette Beard/Sorelle Sucere. Welcome to my blog, which is dedicated to all the loving, intelligent, brave, wise, strong, gentle, kind, sweet-and-geeky, humble-and-patient, whether they have hands, paws, hooves, wings, fins, or even flippers and to all eager readers and hard-working authors, everywhere. Scroll down to see all the good stuff! ;)
Meanwhile...
I love all creatures. I consider them, all of them, to be sentient beings... I write thrillers, fantasy, mysteries, gothic horror, romantic adventure, occult, Noir, westerns and various types of short stories. I also re-tell traditional folk tales and make old fairy tales carefully cracked. I'm often awake very early in the morning. A cuppa, and fifteen minutes later I'm usually writing something. ;)

The Man Who Wasn't There...
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there!
He wasn't there again today.
I wish, I wish he'd go away!
When I came home last night at three,
The man was waiting there for me.
But when I looked around the hall,
I couldn't see him there at all!
Go away, go away, don't you come back any more!
Go away, go away, and please don't slam the door!... (slam!)
Last night I saw upon the stair,
a little man who wasn't there!
He wasn't there again today.
Oh, how I wish he'd go away.
