Death Wind by William Bell
Allie's life has just taken a turn for the worse; not only do her parents fight all the time, but she is failing more classes than not and now she thinks she might be pregnant. Unable to face up to her parents she decides to run away. She hooks up with her old friend Razz, a professional skateboarder, and goes on the road. Razz is ranked number one but constant confrontations with the challenger Slash put Allie in some dangerous situations. With the rivalry heating up, Razz and Allie head toward home--right into the path of a fierce tornado. To survive in the horror and destruction that follow the storm, Allie has to call on an inner strength she didn't know she had. Also available in Spanish.
W. Bell grew up in Newark, New Jersey. He is the son of Willie Bell and Cynthia Bell. They resided in a home there. We believed in education of individuals and systemic maintenance of the person. Individuals meaning people dedicated to the enrichment of the whole. The whole society as a plausible reality that besets inconsistencies. Passion meets persistence and virtue is not inaccessible. W. Bell went to parochial grammar school. It taught the value of the person and instilled possibility through empowerment. Enstooling greatness was an intricate facet of the institution. Daily preparation of our psychological pallets was made possible by hour long meetings in the morning. They sought our secrets and married our souls. In the sense that the learning provided stature and sense. Truth be told, W. Bell admired the teachers and appreciated the students. For all that is said, he appeared drawn and discomforted, but cared for his colleagues. He believes in the potentiality of persons and stewardship of the credible. During high school, management and religion took particular interest. Giving presentations and announcements were fulfilling. While acknowledging the acuity of the intellect and pursuit of dreams, the idea of communicating with others was a real gift. Judging perception and creativity became tantamount. Shooing right and deterring wrong can become oxymoronic, but all and all W. Bell overcame. The bedeviling nature of happenings is upon us and through our communications we give direction. Purpose speaks and poetry gives us an underlying understanding. Since remembrance, the best years, the college years, are resolute and awesome. W. Bell, an author, appreciates his audience and cares for humanity.
