Through this program, this author's natural flair for writing became immediately apparent to the program director and formed a friendship/mentorship identity that lasted for many years until the untimely passing of El-R's beloved mentor. In addition to her enthusiasm for writing, El-R majored in Commercial Art as a high school student, even graduating from higher education with an AAS in Art & Design from Robert Morris University, Chicago.

Reviews

Came across this book by chance and decided to take a chance, it is a beautifully written book and the poetry is personal and heartfelt and that’s why I fell in love with some of the poems.

The poetry of this writer is provocatively authentic and captivates the imagination. I have always had an affinity for poetry and this book has become one of my favorites. It's a must read.

My words will not do this book justice! It's beautifully written and there are amazing works of art throughout the pages. Buy! Buy! Buy!
