Welcome!

Welcome to the home of Salem Banner, the author of "Coming Forth by Day", "High on the Line", and the gothic horror series "The Flight of Melvin Charlie".

Announcement!

My new book, Acceptable Collateral Damage, is available NOW!

You can find it on Amazon here.

Society's problems have been solved. War's have ended, everyone has a home, and the centers of people's lives are the communities they build together. Taryn knows all of this, but a traumatic event in her childhood has left her feeling isolated and alone. She thinks she'll never fit in anywhere. When she heads to the city center to interview for a new job, however, she finds that there is a place for her after all, a place full of excitement and wonder, a place where she can shape and guide the destiny of the world.
