Produktbeschreibung

When Words Fall Short, The Military Collection, is a collection of military-themed, short stories that tell the stories of what it means to have served your country, of the commitment that serving requires, and of the pain, as well as the honor, of those who have served. The master storyteller, Mr. Paul John Hausleben, writes tales not of combat lore or battlefield actions; instead, the author writes stories focused upon the emotions, the courage, and the human side of what it takes to be willing to commit your life, your honor and your heart to preserve freedom and what you strongly believe in. Mr. Hausleben tells the reader stories laced with touches of religion, a little dab of fantasy, but all the stories are packed emotion, and most of all, honor and respect for those special people willing to make the ultimate sacrifice. This remarkable collection includes some of Mr. Hausleben's previously published and released short stories with military-themes from his other collections, as well as, what might be his most popular, short story, "Flying" in a revised and different version. Also included herein are some new short stories, along with the critically acclaimed and previously unreleased story, "The Basket on the Wall." When Words Fall Short, The Military Collection, is sure to leave a reader breathless, perhaps, a little teary-eyed but surely, with a new respect of what it means to have made the ultimate commitment and sacrifice.

Autorenporträt

It is difficult to classify the work of Paul John Hausleben. One critic's words might be the best description so far, when he wrote, "Mr. Hausleben is a myriad of storytelling adventures. When Mr. Hausleben writes humor, he is today's Jean Shepherd. When he dabbles in emotions, drama, fantasy or the other genres that he ventures into, then he is impossible to classify. His now, seemingly endless cast of characters has become almost 'Dickens-like.' He is indeed; a master storyteller and that might be the best description of all." If you are lucky enough to meet Paul John Hausleben in person and have a chance to sit and speak with him, then we can guarantee that it will be a magical experience. If your luck is exceptional and you are able to lure him into a story or two, then it will be forever memorable. As many people have said, you will not meet a better storyteller. Paul himself will tell you that he is not an author, he will insist in saying that he is just a storyteller. His mission is to continue to write and tell stories to warm your heart, make you laugh, and sometimes make you cry - just a little. Most of all, he deals in memories, and helping you to also remember the good times of your own life, and the special people who touched you along the way. Paul was born and raised in Paterson, and then nearby Haledon, New Jersey, and began writing at an early age. He revisited a writing career later in his life, and he now is the author of a number of novels, compilations, short stories and other works. Most of his work, touches upon nostalgic remembrances of simpler times, and tells the stories of heartfelt, humorous, and special human relationships. 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. He now resides in Somewhere, U.S.A., but his heart always remains along Belmont Avenue in good old Paterson, and Haledon, New Jersey.
