Way back in time, when the dinosaurs first died off, at the ripe old age of sixteen, Paul John Hausleben, wrote three stories for a creative writing class in high school. Enrolled in a vocational school, and immersed in trade courses and apprenticeship, left little time for writing ventures but PJH wrote three exceptional and entertaining stories. Paul John Hausleben’s stories caught the eye of two English teachers in the college-preparatory academic programs and they pulled the author out of his basic courses and plopped him in advanced English and writing courses. One of the English teachers had immense faith in Paul’s talents, and she took PJH’s stories, helped him brush them up and submitted them to a periodical for publication. To PJH’s astonishment, the periodical published all three of the stories and sent him a royalty check for fifty dollars and . . . that was it. PJH did not write anymore because life got in his way. Fast forward to 2009 and while living on the road in Atlanta, Georgia (and struggling to communicate with the locals who did not speak New Jersey) for his full-time job, PJH took a part-time job writing music reviews for a progressive rock website, and that gig caused the writing bug to bite PJH once more. He recalled those old stories and found the old manuscripts hiding in a dusty box. After some doodling around with them, PJH decided to revisit them. Two stories became the nucleus for the anthology now known as, The Time Bomb in The Cupboard and Other Adventures of Harry and Paul. The other story became the anchor story for the collection known as, The Christmas Tree and Other Christmas Stories, Tales for a Christmas Evening. Now, many years and over thirty-five published works later, along with countless blogs and other work, PJH continues to write. Where and when it stops, only the author really knows.
On the other hand, does he really know?
If you ask Paul John Hausleben, he will tell you that he is not an author, he is just a storyteller. Other than writing, among many careers both paid and unpaid, he is a former semi-professional hockey goaltender, a music fan and music reviewer, an avid sports fan, photographer and amateur radio operator.

The Quiet Stranger in the Black Hat Series
|
The master storyteller, Mr. Paul John Hausleben returns and this time he brings with him, his most mysterious character, The Quiet Stranger in the Black Hat.
Is the mysterious stranger, a superhero, or an angel sent from Heaven, or a ghost, or perhaps he is simply a manifestation of a person's mind? It is impossible to tell, and his creator is not revealing the stranger's true identity.
The author says, "I think it is best for a reader to decide who or what the stranger actually is and determine their own ideas as to his role and identity. To quote the stranger's own words regarding his identity, 'I am who you want me to be and what you can never imagine that I am.'"
Herein is a collection of fantasy short stories with emotional and unforgettable storylines, as the mysterious, quiet stranger in the black hat appears to shape people's lives, save them from cruel fates, guide them and show them the truth, of which they might be too afraid to face.
If you are weary of zombies, the end of the world and the same old themes found in other ordinary fantasy tales, The Tales of the Quiet Stranger in the Black Hat is the fantasy book for you!
No matter what the mysterious stranger's actual identity is, these stories are puzzling, mysterious, and poignant, and all wrapped up in one special and unforgettable collection.
