Words from a Reader

The “Writing Life Stories” e-mails I receive are such treasures. As soon as I see there is one in my inbox, I read it immediately. I look forward to them and never know how they will touch me. They can be interesting, informative, humorous, and/or touching.

Marcia Barnes, Georgia Author of the Year

I want to send out a BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Marcia Barnes, member of NCWN West.


On June 3rd, Marcia's children's book, Tobijah, was named winner in the children's book category, and Marcia was awarded Georgia Author of the Year Award in the Childrens' Book Category by the Georgia Writers' Association at a banquet held at Kennesaw State University.
Category: CHILDREN’S BOOK
Winner: Marcia Hawley Barnes, Tobijah   


I can say from first hand knowledge, it is one of the most beautiful books for children that I have seen in a  long time. If you have kids or grandchildren, order this book for the little ones.



Marcia  also published a family recipe book that I recommend. The Little Book of Secret Family Recipes. A heritage cookbook, the collection contains favorite recipes found in the archives of her family.

    Congratulations Marcia.
    I have (even at my advanced years) a big weakness for children's books. The very best of them cross the age divide effortlessly.
