(1888PressRelease)
June 01, 2008 - Raleigh, NC, -- Nina Knows the Night, by author Jon Batson, follows the adventures of Nina Richardson a mild-mannered law school dropout who becomes a kick-butt heroine after innocently acquiring a metal case filled with military-like weapons. Determined to knock out the growing crime in her formerly posh-turned-run-down urban neighborhood she discovers her superpowers to be her own inner-strength and purpose.
“I welcome the comments and feedback from fans and readers.” said Batson. “This is not a serious book. As a performing songwriter and author I believe people want to be entertained from time to time. Like the great American philosopher-cartoonist, Walt Kelly once said, “‘Don't take life so serious, son, it ain't nohow permanent.’”

Known for his witty ability to get a point across, Jon has entertained audiences with his songs in the US and Europe since the 60’s. His story-telling style migrated easily to short stories and novels. “Selfers” and “Smoking Bedpan” join “The Powder Monkey of Cape Fear”, “Gaston’s Last Run” and “Love at the Lumina Pavilion” as award-winning short stories penned by Batson.
