ome wives have wondered why their husbands won’t listen to them. And some have resigned to themselves that he never will. Maybe with some understanding there is hope:

A husband tends to use only half of his brain while listening; a wife tends to use both sides of her brain.
Men tend not to be emotional. They also tend not to talk as much as a woman. So they don’t provide women with the kind of feedback that they desire.
There is a tendency in some people to resist while listening to others.
The Bible exhorts husbands to love their wives and dwell with them with understanding. There are also examples of husbands who listened to their wives for their benefit or their own peril.
Using real-life and personal examples, a famous model of communication, and Bible references, popular Internet talk show host S.B. Redd offers a practical approach to improving marriage by encouraging husbands to listen to their wives.

Versatility was one of author S.B. REDD'S strengths during his fifteen-year career in print journalism. Although he worked primarily as a sports reporter, he also wrote capably on topics like religion and politics as a free-lance writer for a national magazine.

"It used to be back in the dark and dingy days of smoke-filled newsrooms the sports reporter was regarded as your best and most versatile writer on the staff," he says. "We were the ones who brought the action before a reader's eyes. We were the ones whose jobs depended on meeting tight deadlines. I think out of jealousy, a stigma was affixed to our craft. I can't tell you how many times I was viewed as just a sports writer when I expressed an interest in non-sports writing jobs, although I had proven myself otherwise."

Mr. Redd's debut novel, Temptation.com, to be published by Xpress Yourself Publishing in 2009, is a scintillating work of erotica fiction that delves into online dating and sexual and online porn addictions.

"I think some people who have known me over the years may not be surprised that I would actually write a book; they may be more surprised with the genre," he says. "I'm not going to say writing erotica is the perfect fit for me. I will say that my print journalism background probably helped me with the ability to write with detail and putting the reader into certain scenes."

Mr. Redd had aspirations of becoming a sports journalist as a sixth grader. He worked on newspaper staffs in junior high school, high school and in college. Upon graduation from Texas Southern University, in his native Houston, he worked for more than a decade at daily newspapers in Texas, Florida, Virginia and South Carolina. He earned a reputation for delivering hard-hitting and cutting-edge news stories. In 1999, he was nationally recognized by the Associated Press Sports Editors for the best news story for all newspapers with a daily circulation of 50,001 to 150,000.

He currently resides in Columbia, South Carolina, with his family.
