Author's Bio

 

Danielle Martin is a former Caribbean Journalist and Copywriter, who took a leap of faith to pursue her dream of giving voice to emotions and making stories come alive.

Quite notably, her debut anthology "Kissing Shadows: Caribbean Love Poems" has graced the Amazon Best Seller List.

As a contributing writer, Danielle's poems have also appeared online via Ariel Chart, Claudius Speaks, Free Lit Magazine, Entropy, The Organic Poet, as well as in several print publications such as the 2016, 2017, 2021 and 2022 Poetry Marathon Anthologies, Heart Beats: Anthology of Poetry (2021), A Safe and Brave Space Vol. II (2022) and Mother of the Earth, International Anthology of Women Voices for Environmental Activism. (2023)

Her newest release to date, however, isn't poetry, but a series of short stories entitled, "Sweet Talk: Caribbean Culture". A hilarious and insightful read that persons from, or having traveled to the islands will surely find relatable.

This poet/author believes that spontaneity creates the best memories and lives by the mantra, "And this too shall pass."
