Biography Photos Poems Short Stories Narration

Denise Marshall is a retired legal assistant, part-time entertainer (vocalist, percussionist, dancer and party entertainer) and writer of poetry, short stories in prose and lyrics. She is also a story-teller, as well as story writer.

Denise has lived all her life in the sunshine and blue skies of Georgia, U.S.A. and can think of no other place she'd rather be. Denise has four children and nine grandchildren, who love and know her as "Nanna".

Denise is a cancer survivor of two years and feels that conquering the illness has inspired her renewed appreciation and love for life, with all its ups and downs, as well as being the stimuli for her interest and passion for writing. Thankfully, Denise has had no reoccurrence of her life-changing illness, and has only been left with a desire to share her joy, and talents with the world.

Denise is 52 years young in mind, body and soul, divorced and single right now. She describes herself as intelligent, funny, laid-back, quick-witted, loving and caring.

From Denise:

"I enjoy life and people, and they seem to enjoy me. There's nothing I would enjoy more than to share an ice cold drink with you out on my screened-in porch and share stories of times gone by!

I have experienced many unusual and interesting things in my lifetime as a Georgia peach, facts stranger than fiction. I've learned to love, laugh and cry about the unpredictable events of life.

I have many memories that would make a storyteller proud; many memories of experiences from my childhood to present are what inspired me to become a writer and poet. There is a little of me in every story, and I hope you will enjoy and be enriched by them, too. The only thing greater than seeing smiles of joy is knowing you made it possible."
