Melissa Jackson Brister Bio
http://www.melissajacksonbrister.com/bio.htm
I love writing — everything about it: the first draft, research, and rewrites; reading, talking, and thinking about writing; and the wild, uncertain pursuit of the dream.

Melissa Jackson Brister - Sandcastles
http://www.melissajacksonbrister.com/sandcastles.htm
Wave upon wave in ceaseless rhythms, the ocean summoned her as it drew upon grains of sand. He shifted his weight. Deliberate movements interrupted the memories, the haunted reverie. He watched the last two tourists as they tried in vain to shake the sand from their belongings. Like lemmings, the tourists came, their protocol irrevocable; day after day, lying in the stifling heat, their bodies browned and glistened like sausages sizzling in a summer smorgasbord.

Melissa Jackson Brister Many Thanks
http://www.melissajacksonbrister.com/thanks.htm
When I first designed the Web Site I knew I. Wanted a Thank You page knowing along the way there would be people to thank. I had no idea how soon this page would be used and the degree of gratitude I would experience and continue to feel. It is no exaggeration to state that without the support,encouragement, and kindness of the following people I would not be in pursuit of a distant and long held dream. I am profoundly indebted to my fellow dreamers. I am inspired and humbled by each of you.
