Two Short Stories Excerpts:
- “Stop talking to me. You know owls don’t talk. Do you want someone to hear you? People will think I am nuts, talking to you.”
- “Tracy knew a man was there. She felt his eyes on her, watching her. Feeling her fluttering heartbeat return to normal and the adrenaline surge passing, the original lure of the cabin returned to niggle at her curiosity bone.”

What readers say about the book🧐
As with the first book in the series, these offerings are drawn from the author’s life experiences and woven into fun fiction. They run the gambit from animal stories, to florist experiences, to shopping. The adventures ranging geographically from Illinois to Colorado. I particularly enjoyed the brief blurbs at the end of each tale explaining the origins of the story. If you loved Ms. Dena’s first work, you’ll relish this one.

About the Author
Barbara Daniels Dena
Barbara Daniels Dena is an indie author and influential writer of an eclectic collection of short stories that include many genres. Book one, “For the Soul: A Collection of Short Stories,” was released in August 2021, and book two, titled “One Soul’s Journey,” was released on Jan. 25th, 2023. Her books are available on Amazon Books, Amazon Kindle, and many fine online book sites.
The stories are almost a memoir of inspiring and unique stories of ‘good ole fashioned living,’ along with many humorous past and present memories that will tug on the heart, fictional tall tales, and some children’s tales delighting readers worldwide. Barbara began writing at an early age as a lover of “Make-Believe.” Today, her writing has developed from memories of family and ‘life unexpected with various compilations of events in her life, and her love of animals. She is willing to admit that her vivid imagination plays a role in her stories.
The author is an Illinois native who has lived in many places. As Barb says, I am like a free-spirited “Gypsy.” She has lived and worked in Illinois, Washington, Colorado, Montana, Missouri, and Georgia, but ultimately, returned home and settled back in the Quad Cities area of Illinois. She is a proud mother of two grown children. She was a business owner, ran a temporary employment agency, then transitioned into her passion for floral design, and opened two floral shops. When she isn’t writing, Barbara spends her free time oil painting and enjoys quilting, knitting, and reading. Her favorite book is “Death Be Not Proud” by John J. Gunther.
Her first love is her fur baby, a little Yorkie named Zoe. She continues to write from her cozy nook as she gazes over a pond full of geese and ducks. On many days it is more gazing than writing.
