About the Author George Michael Metivier is a hopeless romantic with many years as a professional photographer. Owning his own business gave him an opportunity to use his art training by creating photoart works involving two hundred women. Accepted in two museums of art and several galleries, publications and other media, George has managed, at least, to illustrate, with humor, outrage and deep confusion the drama and pathos of what may be a quite ordinary love life. But is it? Perhaps it is these barricades and quicksands which make us more the human. Karen L. Riley tempers her hopeless romanticism with a woman's wisdom. Her life has been enriched by her dedication to art and the assimilation of creative attitudes among children. Starting as a journalist with in Long Beach, California, she rapidly advanced to more sophisticated positions where her writing skills were necessarily used properly. She retains a wry sense of humor and a very human appreciation of the vagaries of love.
