***
IT'S ONLY TEMPORARY is a work of literary fiction offering readers a fast-paced road trip across the USA -- a horror fiction novel for adults and a coming of age love story for all ages. A work of apocalypse survival fiction complete with suspense, sci-fi, adventure, fantasy, and dark comedy, this humorous mashup takes a bleak look at the United States right on the brink of total annihilation. But, its spirit of absurdist humor and satire notwithstanding, IT'S ONLY TEMPORARY is ultimately an apocalyptic meteor striking right at the heart of romance, and going on to penetrate the human spirit.
