Twisted Trysts Volume 4

About the Book

Many of you who have previously read the fi rst three volumes of Twisted Trysts know that the inside will reveal a collection of erotic short stories that will engage you in a delightful or delectable twist. To my readers who have not yet read Twisted Trysts volumes 1 2, or 3, a tryst pronounced(trist) is an agreement, especially between lovers, to meet. These stories reveal the lifestyles of various characters with diverse cultural backgrounds from different time zones and dissimilar philosophies about love. The one similarity is the fact that people have not really changed during this millennium. The human condition remains unaltered especially when a man and a woman are engaged in romantic entanglements or are in love. Each story presents the challenges of love, and each tryst is set on a romantic stage of sensuality, desire, and delight.

“Saja Bo Storm does it again! Her magic with words keeps you spellbound, and yearning for more. The Trysts series is a culmination of love, romance, drama, and happenstance.”

Dorothy J Morris, author of the Fatal Trilogy

“Provocative!”

Delnora L. Kelly, Women’s Affairs Advisory Council (WAAC) chairperson

“Saja Bo Storm has again captured our hearts and souls as we breathlessly read her latest collection of trysts.”

-Valerie Fraling, columnist of ‘Living for the Weekend’ Afro American Newspaper, Baltimore

“A wickedly twisted delight…the surprise endings will catch you off guard”

Marilyn Jones, librarian/branch manager

About the Author

Saja Bo Storm knew that there was something special about words early on when she read over a hundred books one summer. She enjoyed the adventures of the different people, relished in the entertainment of traveling to other places, and gained knowledge about other lifestyles and other people. Consequently, she spent a lot of her free time at the library. It was like a second home to her. Writing became her next love after reading. Her interest was piqued enough for her to begin writing poetry at an early age. She honed her skills as a writer when she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in English at Morgan State University. In 2010, the prestigious English department celebrated its seventy-fifth anniversary. She later started an ambitious career as an English teacher at a Baltimore City High School for young men. While participating as a member of Baltimore city’s Grand Jury, she coauthored a thesis which investigated the current status of the city’s “war on drugs.” One of the highlights of her fact gathering was an interview the committee conducted with former Baltimore city mayor and Rhode scholar Kurt Schmoke. Later, she became a member of the Black Writers’ Guild of Maryland and volunteered at the Arena Playhouse and the Enoch Pratt Free Library. As a member of the Black Writers’ Guild, she was involved in pursuing information about the self-publication and marketing of books. At the Arena Playhouse, which in 2003 celebrated fifty years entertaining the citizens of Baltimore, she worked behind the scenes with several directors in various duties as dialogue coach, stage hand, dramaturge, script consultant, and pre-production assistant.. She worked on one of the first black productions of Cat on the Hot Tin Roof, as well as other productions such as Opal’s Husband, Arsenic and Old Lace, Having Our Say, Jar the Floor, and Interstices. She volunteered at the Enoch Pratt Free Library assisting the librarian with imaginative reading groups for school-age children. Last October, Saja became a member of the prestigious Baltimore Griot Circle of Storytellers. She joined the group because of a book she authored which documented the oral tradition of sharing and playing neighborhood games. She also always loved telling ghost stories at her baby sister’s sleepovers. The group tours around the state continuing the rich oral tradition of storytelling. She has appeared at the Towson Cultural Arts Festival, the Baltimore Book Fair, the Johns Hopkins University African-American Book Fair, Artscape (celebrating its thirtieth year this summer), and with various private book clubs—meeting and greeting book lovers around the city.
