Book Description
Since 1995, Michelle Cox has been an active participant in online chatrooms, gaming sites, and lobby activity. She is also a nurse who was a regular visitor to the Physicians Online room, a place that became more to her than just a chatroom. The people who made Physicians Online a phenomenon became a family. There, doctors, nurses, and other professionals shared their lives together. They extended their relationships beyond the keyboard, meeting for lunch, events, parties, and much more. The face-to-face parties were legendary, and now Michelle welcomes you into her memories. To protect the innocent and the infamous she has changed or altered the screen names of the real-life characters who populated her online haunts. Even so, each and every story is inspired by reality. The community was involved in drama, sex, outrageous parties, and even murder. Physicians Online invented the word cyber-bullying before it became a world-wide term. In this personal narrative, Michelle shares true and amazing stories about her experiences with this online group with the hope of conveying just a little of what she felt in the early days of Internet communities.

Book Description
In 1995 Stephan Fletcher disappeared from a computer laboratory in the middle of the night. An investigation led to the discovery that the chatroom he had been visiting had played host to seven people from three different continents; in the past three months, six had died and now Fletcher had disappeared. Was Fletcher another victim of a fatal "accident" or had he somehow orchestrated the deaths? Looking back on the incident from the year 2045, the magazine "Mysteries of the Past" builds a case against Fletcher and re-examines all the known facts. An innovative style of writing combines both newspaper articles and excerpts from the magazine with chatroom dialogue to lead you through the events of 1995 in "Paul's Restroom."
