Marlo Y. Ettien lives in Georgia. She is a wife, mother of two beautiful children, author, poet, and Navy veteran. She has a bachelor's degree in communications from Chatham University.
As a Wiley Author, her work appears in the 2006 Pfeiffer Annual: Training as "Narcissistic Managers: An Impediment to Organizational Development." She has another work, "Culture of Deception," published online in 2009 by American Chronicle. The "Culture of Deception" article has been used in a Media Ethics class and shared with other university professors. A reference for this article, a Psychologist and Executive Business Coach, has shared the article with his colleagues.
Her premiere novel, "Branches from the Same Tree Whether Broken or Reaching," is well received. Her first book club meeting with Onyx Book Club in Atlanta was for 3.5 hours. The book received a five star rating from "Reader's Favorite." Her love for writing started as a young child, who listened to books on record. According to Marlo, words can be both a healing balm and a sword. She enjoys and celebrates words in ways that offer solutions, inspiration, and wonder.
Invited to Smitha Middle School in Powder Springs, Georgia to discuss writing and its impact with approximately 300 English Language Art students. It was a phenomenal success, and the greatest delight was hers to encourage and experience the fearlessness of the students in exchanging ideas.
Special guest at ONYX Book Club 20th anniversary celebration (ONYX Day Proclamation) for contributions to literature and society.
Hosted "Let's Get Healthy! We are All Works In Progress" on 101 Oasis Radio, continuing her mission to inspire and uplift through words.
