Book Description
A book marketer recently asked me what genre my new series is, and I had to think for a minute to figure that out. Eventually, I came up with Autobiographical Supernatural Horror. Now, I realize that sounds more like fantasy than reality; but consider this: if your family has monsters in it, and you write about that family, what do you call it? Franz Kafka wrote about a man who transformed for unknown reasons into a cockroach (obviously autobiographical), and no one batted an eye. My story covers adoption, abortion, LGBT rights, cancer, gay marriage, science, violent crime, small farming in California, missionary work, the arid, modern university environment, AIDS, teaching, and the terrible toxicity of an insular family submerged deep within an abusive religious cult. And all I did was describe my experience growing up in a "normal" American family (of monsters). For the purposes of focus and variety, I've framed the first book around my family's oldest sibling, MY SISTER, SUZIE, a girl who was adopted at birth, and had all the cards stacked against her. The second book recounts the life of OUR LITTLE SISTER, who started her life as a sick and weak little girl but eventually won a college diploma and a man. The final book details some pretty horrific transformations and catastrophes, since it deals with a disastrous mother-son relationship. If you have a mother or a son, …AND THE DRAGONS might keep you up at night. PERFECTLY HUMAN is the unforgivable saga of a boy born into one crazy family, raised by an even more dysfunctional family, and in love with another boy from a third family. There's enough sex to keep it spicy, and enough analysis to excuse all the sex. Offensive Word Count for PERFECTLY HUMAN: The Unexpected Autobiography Of A Hick, by Bayla Dornon.
