BOOK 3 OF THE SERIES In this conclusion to the Being In Her Body Trilogy, B. H. Wrencher learns the occult secrets behind Big Momma Jane's body-swapping. * CHAPTER I. There's one thing about zapping into another person's body. There is a sudden pop, and then you gasp and you feel your blood pressure rise suddenly, then you stabilize. I think it has to do with your mind taking over the body. You have you mind, and it is used to handling your body a certain way. Then the mind is zapped, or uploaded, into a new body. And there is some confusion as it gets used to the new body. Much like when ...

BOOK 2 OF THE SERIES CHAPTER I. Yup. I'm still in her body. Now, before I begin, I have been thinking about something. You know, the so-called ontological shock that would happen when a man suddenly turns into a woman. Specifically, why didn't I suddenly go insane? I really don't know. But I'm glad I didn't—right?

The “best two years”—in your companion's body? *** I turned to Sarah, and as I burped Marlene, I asked, “You know Sarah, you’ve never told us the first story.” “What first story?” She asked, shuffling the cards. “The first time you and your companion swapped bodies. In your letter, you said that the statue helped you and your companion work things out.” I nodded. “BFF. Right?” She leaned back in her chair, and looked at Sam. He put his hand on her knee and gently rubbed it. “You tell it.” “Okay.” She set the pile of cards down, and leaned back into her chair.

Chapter I: Unmasking the heart I opened my eyes wide. Well, my wife’s eyes wide. “So you’re not really my sister-in–law Sarah?” She shook her head, her frizzy hair bobbed back and forth. “Nope. It’s me, Sam.” “Okay, I’ll fess up. I’m Brian.” I curtsied. (Pretend you didn’t just read that last sentence.) He nodded, then looked away at the other women.

We two were in the foyer....

We were decorating for Christmas—you know, decking the halls with boughs of holly and ivy, the wreaths. And you wanted to put the green dragons by the crèche. I was thankful we were in our right bodies. Plus ... Maybe instead of swapping bodies with me, you should have swapped bodies with an adult. You’re saying you are not an adult?
