Bio
Marcia J. Kenyon is a writer of inspirational poetry and has written for many greeting card publishers in the UK. Her guidelines for aspiring writers can be found on the Greeting Card Association website.
She has two sons both of whom she has actively encouraged to always chase their dreams, and they now have jobs that reflect who they are.
Marcia draws on her real-life experiences to be able to write from the heart, although her poetry is open to one's own interpretation. A real free-spirit, she has always been 'different', does not follow the crowd and takes no notice of people who may have suggested she 'get a proper job'.
After over twenty years of working in offices she decided it was time to take her life into her own hands. She completed her piano grades that she began as a child, left her office job and began to teach piano to beginners. She got into TV as a background extra and chaperone and has appeared on many popular UK productions - she continues to do this line of work to this day and is currently represented by Lemon Castings in Manchester, England. She makes her living being 'herself'.
She is inspired by Patience Strong and Helen Steiner Rice and her ambition is to be a household name and sell her inspirational books through card and gift shops worldwide. She can even see the calendars, diaries, mugs, pens and pencils and is wondering whether to trade-mark her name in advance?!
As you can see she has a sense of humour which also comes into her writing - afterall, her aim is to lift people.
So watch this space, her second inspirational poetry collection is intended for release in February, 2014. Thankyou for your interest.
