"Goodwill Ambassador for Family Care" -- Sara M. Barton trained as an educator and artist, worked in clinical settings with children and adults, and now develops family caregiver education. "I believe in family caregiving. The truth is love is never enough to get you through the experience. You also need tools to help you give the right kind of care and to avoid caregiver burnout. An educated caregiver is a care manager, with resources and support. Good family care is about making your loved one as active, independent, and comfortable as possible. It makes your job easier because your loved one is more engaged in the care plan. It's important for every caregiver to still maintain goals, hopes and dreams. You should never give up yourself completely to the care. Balance is key."

She lives with her husband and an explosively fluffy Pomeranian mix in the San Gabriel Valley of Southern California, and in fact just returned to the town where she was born, thus disproving the theory that you can’t go home again.

Author bio:
I write erotica, often with a BDSM kink. I was born in Chicago in the 80s (no, I'm not telling you what year - a girl has to have some secrets). I was always a bit of a wild child. My stories are mostly about good girls who end up submitting to dominant, older men. (Autobiographical? Who, me?) I try to write my sex raunchy, and make the situations and characters believable. For me, if there's no build-up, or I read something and think, "But, she wouldn't do that!" then it kills the experience. I write about encounters and situations that turn me on and get me hot. Some of them are (loosely) based on things that really happened, others are based on things I only wish had happened!

My life's been an interesting journey, to say the least. I was raised in the central Texas area, and upon completing high school, served in the military for over five years. After that, I attended Panola College and the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor, graduating with a degree in Social Work in 1997. Since then, I've worked various jobs in the field, and have recently settled with my wife in Northeast Michigan. Sometimes a complete change is just what the doctor ordered. Recently, I've done away with my pen name of Wilson Kasa and have decided to re-publish my short stories under my real name. My stories come from a mix of what is probably an overactive imagination and real life experiences. I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I did writing them. All the best, Philip
