ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Beverly R. Cole, Writer/Author/Mentor

 I was born and raised in the great state of Texas.  As you can   tell, I was a Dallas Cowboy fan from the start and I still am! My dad always called me the Yellow Rose!  As far back as I can remember I've loved writing or telling stories.  My first critics were of course my siblings. . . .all five of them.  Yep! I am the eldest of three sisters and 2 brothers.  So telling a story was my speciality. A lot of my first materials I created from just watching my family.  There was always something going on at our home. 

As I grew older, finished high school and went off to college, I was crushed. Not a good place to be when you thought yourself a writer.  So because of disappointments and disillusions, I put all writing aside.  Fortunately, when God has given you a gift, He won't let you leave it indefinitely.  So I found my first love again and I began to write and write and write!

Currently I live in Atlanta, GA .  But as a wise person once said, "home is where the heart is". . . so Texas is still Home and someday I plan to return.  In the meantime, I've got Georgia on my mind.  I am a wife of 'thirty-something' years, a mother of two and a grandmother of twins!!  I've always considered being a mother one of my best accomplishments . . .but being a grandmother is very special.
I have two passions in life: Writing and a zeal to mentor the next generation.  My favorite scripture: “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind”, Rom. 12:2.  I believe:  ‘freedom of the mind’ allow us to see the beauty of the world and to find our niche in life.  So the sky is the limit!

Ticker Tittle-Tattles was published in 2006 and thus, allowed me to re-connect with my first love and begin the start of a lifelong dream. “I love seeing through the eyes of a child which enables me to write stories from the heart. 
Thanks to everyone who purchased a copy of “Ticker Tittle- Tattles”.  Look for more Ticker Tales, stories from the heart, very soon.”
