Bio
Shelly Bell is one of the most influential forces in today's spoken word/performance poetry movement. She is an award winning poet, songwriter, author and social media enthusiast whose wisdom shines unafraid of truths many dare to face. Her vast topic range, widely controversial content, emotional subject matter and ability to teach life lessons in conversational tones makes her writing style one-of-a-kind. Her passion for supporting women and writers inspired her to create Women Writers Rock (WWR), a Washington, DC based organization dedicated to creating safe spaces for women writers. Shelly has served as an Arts Commissioner for the City of Alexandria, has performed with the Washington Philharmonic, and is an arts partner with the Northern VA Fine Arts Association.
Some call her a visionary, some call her a "fire-starter." She responds: "I AM SHELLY BELL, my motto is Regret Nothing Write Everything!™"
