    About this ebook

    Lenny Lusendt receives a pair of contacts that enable him to see who people really are. He sees living Ken and Barbie dolls, and teachers who are cavemen, mummies and cardboard cutouts. Since he’s the only one who sees who Pauline really is (everyone thinks she’s autistic), Lenny must race against time to rescue her before his contacts wear out.

    Bio of an Albino LeperboyI was born a poor white boy in a little Ohio hicktown up north (Willard: where the men are men & the sheep are nervous) and moved to southwestern OH in 1998. Now I'm an older albino leperboy who works too much (I teach, therefore I'm insane).So far I've written one novel, Hocus Focus, published in 2008, and one graphic novel, Valedictorian USA, which is being published issue by issue. Also, I write a web comic strip called Clyde the Redneck.

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go
