Barbara Silkstone: Home

Welcome!

I’m so pleased you stopped by. I love chatting with my readers. You can friend me on Facebook or drop me a note at barb(dot)silkstone@gmail(dot)com.

I promise to get right back with you if I’m not bailing myself out of mischief.

I’ve made a career out of being in the wrong place at the right time. If I just stand still for five minutes… wham! Something funny and worth writing about will happen to me. I’ve accidentally sky dived, been stalked by crazies, and even ran off with a real life White Rabbit.

My writing history began humbly enough when I started an underground newspaper in Catholic grade school. I was threatened with excommunication by the nuns so I went further underground. I’ve packed many adventures into my life excusing even the disasters as “material for my next book.”

For six years I traveled the United States listening to men reveal their darkest secrets for my book, The Adventures of a Love Investigator, 527 Naked Men & One Woman. When I was finished with my odyssey, I pulled a blanket over my head and refused to come out until I discovered the secret to staying sane. I now write criminally funny fairy tales ripped from the headlines… shaken, not stirred, and served with a twist and a chuckle.

I’ve been blessed with wonderful fans. I love each and everyone of you!
