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.
After volumes and volumes of fictional work, the master storyteller finally releases a collection of stories that all dance along the edges of nonfiction. On the Edge of Memories, The Random Collection is a stunning assortment of diverse material from the mind of the master storyteller, Mr. Paul John Hausleben.
This eclectic collection of short stories, novellas, and even a poem, range in subject matter from humor, to romance, to religion, to drama, but all the work has one common element. All the stories contain elements of truth and touches of nonfiction, from the actual edge of memories and life of the author. Through the author's own life and experiences, the author shares parts and pieces of his own memories and he mixes them into one glorious tale after another.
The author often states that he enjoys writing short stories the most, and critics and readers all agree that with very few words and very few pages, Mr. Hausleben entertains and then captures a reader's mind forever. This is a book that allows readers and fans to gain deep insight into the fascinating life and world of the author, as well as an inside peek into the talented but eccentric mind of Paul John Hausleben. This is another instant classic!
