The Barber's Shop - Tapa blanda

Who would ever think that simple horseplay could turn into a hot forbidden love affair between consenting adults? Because of a busy schedule, I had to advert my usual Wednesday afternoon trip to the barber's shop to a Saturday morning visit to the barber's shop. Knowing how everyone seemed to get cuts on Saturdays, because of wanting to go out and party Saturday nights or for a fresh look for Sunday morning church service or because of work on Monday. I figured showing up early before everyone else got there, it would be my way of beating the crowd. Boy was I wrong. Not to mention that the barber, although his reputation for his cuts exceeded him well, he was also known as a womanizer and went through women like he changed underwear, daily. And he had also made a play for my younger sister at one time, knowing he was well over the age of 21. I had my beef with Jay but I respected him as a barber and knew that although his personal life was his own and none of my business, he knew how to cut my hair. And regardless of what my personal thoughts were of him, we were still cordial to one another keeping business as business... Until that fateful Saturday morning.

Steven Paul-Germané, born June 28th 1966, in Los Angeles, California and move to a small town in Oklahoma called Ft. Coffee, attended Spiro High School graduating in 1984. At the time I was the third child of five and then with the move to Oklahoma, the third child of seven; with three brothers and three sisters. My father died at age 43 and my mother is still alive. I attended Carl Albert Jr. College in Poteau, Oklahoma and also Westark Community College in Ft. Smith, Arkansas and then continued my education at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, afterwards. I'm a divorced father of two daughters and adopted a son as well as two-step children from the marriage. E. Lynn Harris has always been my inspiration for writing and he too at one time attended the University of Arkansas and taught there also. Not only do I write books, I write songs and am a self-taught piano player whose mother has a strong religious background as did I when growing up. I got my musical start in church at the age of four just like so many others before me. I was at church seven days a week if the church doors were opened and at one time served as minister of music. Although no religious affiliation as of now, I still recognize God as the head of my life and my past experiences whether good or bad are what drives me to write and to accept the cards that I have been dealt. I wrote several stories and tons of songs by the time I graduated high school and recently wrote the lyrics for a song that I was hoping Brad Paisley would have selected to be recorded for his latest album and sent them to Paramount Studios in Nashville, TN. Unfortunately as fate would have it, the 2013 audition that I was to compete in concerning the Voice in Austin, TX July 12th and 13th I wasn't able to make, due to unforeseen circumstances. As of now, I have completed the manuscripts to five books, The Barber's Shop, Storm, Storm II: Taken by Storm, Storm III: S
