and is now available for digital download on CDBaby, Amazon.com,
iTunes, and other platforms that sell mp3's. Her CD can be purchased

Barbara's most recent
novel, Line of Battle, has been posted on her website,
www.barbarabell.com for a limited time. At this time, you can read the
first three chapters.
She is presently working on a new novel
and a screenplay and trying to learn social networking skills, at which
she failed miserably in high school. At some point, she may get her act
together, but really, the chances are next to nil.

In 2006,
Barbara and co-director Anna
Lorentzon teamed up to create their feature
documentary, Graphic Sexual Horror,
about the shocking porn website
Insex.com. Screening to sold-out audiences at Slamdance in 2009, it went
on to screen at HotDocs Toronto, FantasiaFest Montreal, and many film festivals worldwide. Purchased for worldwide digital
distribution by Cinetic Rights Management, Graphic Sexual Horror was released in March 2010 on
Amazon. However, because of its
use of highly
controversial content, GSH was removed from Amazon's listings within
seven days. Synapse Films purchased Graphic Sexual Horror DVD rights in the summer of 2009 and, after Warner Distribution refused to carry the title, found a new distributor. The DVD of GSH was finally released in August of 2010 and hit the top of independent releases shortly thereafter. Amazon then removed GSH again. The National Coalition Against Censorship (NCAC.org) worked hard to get the title re-listed by August 2011.
