An Excerpt
From the first story, “Virtual Harmony”:
It’d all started innocently enough. After plugging in my new
MP3 player and booting up my computer to download my play-
list, my finger froze just above the mouse. An unfamiliar file
folder appeared along with the others: ―George’s Songs.‖
Who was George, and how did he get on my computer?
Having moved into the neighborhood less than a month ago,
I didn’t know anyone in the area, and no one had access to my
computer. Another new icon appeared at the bottom of my
screen and blinked on and off. My new wireless system was
working. I returned my gaze to the ―George’s Songs‖ icon.
Somehow, my computer’s system had picked up this George’s
file and downloaded it to my machine.
Curiosity won out over caution, and without thinking twice, I
opened the file to check out his playlist. Almost the entire list of
songs I’d planned to download onto my MP3 player was already
in George’s.
Whoever he was, George had good taste.

Biography:
Liese Sherwood-Fabre knew she was destined to write when she got an A+ in the second grade for her story
about Dick, Jane, and Sally’s ruined picnic. After obtaining her PhD from Indiana University, she joined the fed-
eral government and had the opportunity to work and live internationally for more than fifteen years—in Africa,
Latin America, and Russia. Returning to the states, she seriously pursued her writing career and has published
various pieces. Her debut novel Saving Hope, a thriller set in Russia, was based in part on her observations while
in that country. She has recently turned to a childhood interest in Sherlock Holmes for an as-yet unpublished
series on Sherlock growing up in a rather unusually gifted family. Along the way she has written and published a
number of short stories, garnering awards such as a Pushcart Prize nomination. She recently collected eleven of
these tales into a volume: Virtual Harmony and Other Short, Sweet Romances, released on October 15.
