Her first book of poetry: Dark Musings has received outstanding reviews. It is likely she was born to this calling. Writing elaborate twisted tales, to entertain her classmates in middle school, would later lead Xtina to use her poetry writing as a private emotional outlet in adult life—words she was hesitant to share publicly—but the more she shared; the more accolades her writing received.Her first novel: Desiree is well under way.James hails originally from Yorkshire, England having relocated with his family to Houston, Texas in 2010.

Musing ep.722 "She's pretty, but her cousin has the darkness I need." Jeff Poole is an author, an actor, a writer, and a traveler. He's also a cancer survivor. Once you've dealt with that, all other accomplishments, no matter how passionately you pursue them, become 2nd on the list of things done! He's been acting since March 2014, including some voice acting work on audible. He's a published writer of short stories in various genres, and he's a member of the Horror Writers Association. (HWA) He's appeared in full length features, television series, commercials, and many short films.

He recently wrote, produced and acted in a short horror comedy, "Hello," which is making the festival rounds, and has been selected as a finalist for best short in many of them. He's traveled extensively in Europe, North America, the Caribbean and Australasia, and he likes to think it has had an affect on his writing, and acting.   ---- Listen Elsewhere ---- YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/c/TallTaleTV Website: http://www.TallTaleTV.com   ---- Story Submission ---- Got a short story you'd like to submit? Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com   ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers. They say the strongest form of advertising is word of mouth, so I offer a platform for readers to share these videos and help spread the word about these talented writers. Please consider sharing these stories with your friends and family to support these amazing authors.
