- About Me and My Book:
- After college and a stint in the U. S. Army, Mr. Furman served as an FBI agent for twenty-two years. He investigated major case bank robberies, kidnappings, extortions, and organized crime before specializing in counter terrorism. He headed FBI headquarters’ counter terrorism efforts to thwart the illegal activities of right wing survivalist groups, and terrorist organizations like the Puerto Rican FALN and Macheteros. He was also in charge of a multi-agency task force that investigated chemical/nuclear terrorism threats against the United States.
Currently he is the CEO of the Rexus Corporation, a private investigation and security consulting firm.
In the first book of this popular series, Sam’s Quest: The Search for the Crimson Crystal, we met Prince Buznor “Buzz”. Book Two, Sam’s Quest: The Royal Trident, has the Awokian prince embarking on a diplomatic mission to the Innerworld. Sam disobeys her worried grandfather and returns to Innerworld where she learns more about this realm and herself, her family, and where she belongs.
With her trusty dog Patch by her side, Sam must fight the Unseen Evil Force as Pax Hordes tries to destroy 1,000 years of peace. As she tries to bridge the gap between good and evil, she learns about trust and faces the most powerful evil she has ever encountered.

The Devil’s Darning Needle -- Excerpt
By Ben Furman

It was time to hide the valuables.
Frank was the biggest and fastest, and he could more than hold his own with the older kids. He possessed the hand-eye coordination of a shell-ga… Continue

Scribblers’ Retreat is a non-profit organization established with the goal of reaching writers of all ages; to inspire and promote their hidden gifts and talents.
By involving the local community, authors, publishers, editors, journalists and all forms of the literary world, we are opening their minds and bringing hope where there was doubt.
Scribblers’ Retreat is not the typical classroom setting. It was designed to bring world-class authors, literature professors, editors, journalists, illustrators, photo journalists, proofreaders, publishers, publicists, screenplay writers, and website/graphic designers, etc. one-on-one with young and old alike. It is the opportunity of a lifetime for someone who has had a manuscript in a desk drawer for 40 years or who has an outstanding poem that simply must be read.
Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference
Where “can’t” is not in our vocabulary.
