In this episode Desiree Duffy speaks to Author, Publisher of Vertical Life Magazine and fellow bibliophile Celeste Duckworth about the state of education and how we can all help the next generation learn through our writing.
At one time Celeste embarked on studying to become a lawyer, but
her professor cautioned her that she would not make a living at it
because her love for helping others would prevent her from charging
them for her labor. She discovered that she had a love for writing,
and during her second semester she wrote a Science Fiction novel.
This led her to enroll in a Creative Writing class to access her
potential as a creative writer.
She had always written short stories privately and this was going
to be the first time she would dare to expose herself to the
scrutiny of others by letting them read her work. Her first poem,
“An Oasis in the Desert,” was published by the City of Phoenix,
Arizona to hang on the wall of the new Maryville Pool
House.
Through her Poetry "It's
You! Poetry inspired by Love,"she has facilitated Dramatic
Presentations involving Music, Art and Poetry with her group called
the Positively Profound Players. Celeste has written three books
and hopes to have them published by the end of this year.
