Neale Sourna mini bio

Neale won BlackRefer.com’s Best Erotica award for her first published novel, “Hobble,” published through her own company, PIE: Perception Is Everything, and ranked as a finalist for New Century Screenplay’s national contest for her script, “Frames.” Neale writes and edits for others through her writing company Writing-Naked.com and has been plotting and planning her first solid foray as author, editor, and publisher with essays and research about the symbiosis of acting and celebrity, see ProjectKeanu.com for the latest.

Neale is based in Cleveland, Ohio, USA (Garfield Heights more specifically) and is a graduate of John F. Kennedy H.S., a former student of Cuyahoga Community College, a graduate of Lake Erie College, and also attended grad Film/Video studies at American University, an undergrad-intern semester at Mount Vernon College for the National Endowment for the Arts Opera-Musical Theatre department, and an academic term abroad in Vienna, Austria.

Neale has several novels, novellas, and short stories in the works; some of which can be read in excerpts at www.Neale-Sourna.com or www.PIE-Percept.com or full ebooks and trade paperbacks bought online and ordered at brick and mortar stores.

Neale’s works have an edge that always brings the reader back to the core of being human, and she has remarked that, “I don’t write ‘romance’ stories, but character love stories, with romance of the heart and of adventure, in its many, many varieties; whether about military special forces regiments, wealthy Victorian ‘minorities,’ or vampires of another color.” All of which are still in the works.

About Us at Neale Sourna's Nude, Sexy, and Erotic Amazon Store

I write fiction and publish under my own aegis called PIE: Perception Is Everything [http://www.PIE-Percept.com] and give writing assistance as Writing-Naked.com at Elance.com and Guru.com.

I live in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. I love craftsmanship, in story and other life works.

Nothing invigorates and stays with us like the one story that we may call, "My Story." Which is about someone else, but resonates with us so deeply, or in such yummy perversity--on occasion--that we hold it dear, as a fundamental part of us.

How about that, dearest reader?

Open note to a request for a writer of personal abuse story

You have a lot going on here and, perhaps, others can be of writing assistance, but I find that this kind of energy and passion to tell a story is best told by the one with that energy and passion. You might not write it fast, nor perfect, but getting a journal and sitting down and writing it by hand, then keying it or having someone transcribe it later into a Word doc, will give you a better, more heartfelt story for someone to polish than someone other than yourself writing your story from basic notes. Writing is power, you should consider using it for yourself, and others who'll read it later. A good writing class can help you technique. But again, a story like this is best written by the one with the deep passion to tell it.
