As a child\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Even at the age of seven, up and coming Author Cheryl Denise Bannerman, would sit for hours on end, reading about faraway lands, intriguing characters and intoxicating storylines.<\/p>\n And by a pre-teen, she was writing poetry for publication and short stories for school that moved readers to laughter, tears, and joy. She was an old creative soul from a young age, experiencing way too much \u2018life\u2019 than she would have liked.<\/p>\n All grown up\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n When Cheryl Denise Bannerman is not writing for her next book, she is running her 23-year old virtual B2B Training and Development company based out of her Orlando, Florida, home. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Management and a Master of Science degree in IT Project Management and Leadership; and since 1996, she has been known to her clients as an Instructional Design and e-Learning Expert \u2014 creating classroom training materials, e-Learning modules, job aides and more for corporate employees.<\/p>\n In her spare time, she loves to read murder mysteries, cook, watch movies, try new restaurants and cuisines, and take in the sun on the beach. And, although this author\u2019s works are fiction, she has incorporated many of her personal life\u2019s experiences into her stories.<\/p>\n Through the trials and tribulations of her life, she has learned to heal through her writing. One of the few female authors to introduce topics of social concern within \u2018fictional\u2019 stories, her books draw from the most intimate life experiences and include characters who have been victims of child molestation and domestic violence, and who suffer from depression and various other addictions. For example, her second book, Words Never Spoken, which just won the 2018 Book Excellence Award, is a self-help, poetry, chapter-book about a woman who escaped an abusive relationship, and even includes self-reflection journal pages for readers to document their feelings and begin healing.<\/p>\n Her goal in life is to keep writing and continue helping victims of Domestic Abuse\/Violence, Grief and ANON family groups, and Corporate Health and Wellness groups, to heal through words \u2014 encouraging them to \u2018write the pain\u2019 via journaling, and expressing themselves through short stories, songs, and poetry.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”1594″ img_size=”full” el_class=”bio-img”][vc_column_text]Header: Upcoming Events <\/strong><\/p>\n Come meet the author and purchase a signed copy of one of her books!<\/em><\/p>\n Date:<\/strong> Sunday, May 5, 2019<\/p>\n Time:<\/strong> 9am-4pm<\/p>\n Event:<\/strong> OE Book Festival<\/p>\n Place: <\/strong>OXFORD EXCHANGE | Commerce Club | Second Floor | 420 West Kennedy Boulevard | Tampa, Florida 33606[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1596″ img_size=”full” el_class=”bio-img”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”1593″ img_size=”full” el_class=”bio-img”][vc_column_text]Header: In the News <\/strong><\/p>\n Orlando Echo Honors Local Author and Entrepreneur<\/em><\/p>\n Read More\u00a0here<\/a><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1597″ img_size=”full” el_class=”bio-img”][vc_column_text]Guess who\u2019s getting a makeover?<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”1490″ img_size=”full” el_class=”bio-img”][vc_column_text]Black Child to Black Woman is currently in re-publication.
