Growing up in Winston-Salem, North Carolina in the 60s, "Leftover Pieces” is Robin’s testimony of how God took the little she had, blessed it and multiplied her fragments.

Hi
I'm Robin
My journey as a bookworm began in elementary school in Winston-Salem, NC. Growing older, I seamlessly intertwined my love for reading with a passion for writing. Retiring as an Assistant Warden from the Florida Department of Corrections opened doors for me to indulge in both these passions. For 12 years, I contributed as a book reviewer for RT Book Reviews Magazine and, for an additional two years, served as a writer and copy editor for Legacy Palm Beach, a black-owned magazine in South Florida.
My writing took a transformative turn with the contribution of "Angel On My Tail" in the anthology Angels Working Overtime: A Love. Hope. Faith. This piece, inspired by buried stories among my notes from sermons and teachings, became a catalyst for my subsequent work. In "Leftover Pieces," featured in Back In The Day, I delved into nonfiction, sharing my personal testimony and labeling it as my own 'two little fishes and five barley loaves' miracle.
Armed with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, a Master of Arts in Criminal Justice, and Certification in Public Management, I'm now embracing a chapter that had its seeds planted years ago. Transitioning from walking the compound with women sentenced to life behind bars, I now write about women challenged to find the freedom that serves them justice.
Currently residing in South Florida, I hold onto the promise, "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV).
