Did you know that April is National Poetry Month?
“Poetry and writing is something I’ve loved and have been doing since I was a kid. I actually thought I could make a career of it before my parents told me I needed to think of something more sustainable to take care of myself (womp womp 😜).
As an adult in my early 30’s (a year before I got into Public Health) I still had this deep desire to become an Author, so I did in 2011 with my first Poetry Collection, Whispers of Words Spoken.
Ni'cola Mitchell being a Writer and Bestselling Author herself believed in my dream, and I signed with her company NCM Publishing to put my first book into the world 🌎!
The moment I stood in Barnes and Nobles (one of my fav stores) in Las Vegas and had my book signing, and was able to walk back to the poetry section and pull my book off the shelf, I knew one of my dreams had come true 🥰!
Please don’t ever let anyone tell you that you aren’t a multi-faceted being and that you can’t have dreams and hobbies outside of your career because I am proof that you can!
💫Be your whole selves with all of your passions, hobbies and dreams 💫!
📚HAPPY NATIONAL POETRY MONTH Fellow Writers, Editors, Creatives, Bibliophiles, and Lexiphiles!! 📚”
