What others are saying about Embracing Candace: Anthology One
I am the author and publisher of Embracing Candace: Anthology One.
These are a few reviews written by those who have purchased a copy
of this anthology that promotes compassion for others who have
physical differences.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I have read my purchased copy several times over...and It
never fails to captivate me. The work withing the binding
is impressive and heartfelt but what (still) amazes me more
is the selfless act of each and every poet and artist therein
of contributing their time, effort and heart to further this
cause, enlighten the masses and make a little girl's smile
even broader. I feel honored to have been allowed to contribute
as I am in the company of many great artists of the sketch
and the word.

For those who haven't yet... please purchase a copy of this
wonderful tome. In fact think of it as a donation in which
you receive a truly amazing book as a token of thank you.

Mimi,

You are one of the sweetest souls I have ever encountered
and truly an earthbound angel...

... I am better for having met you.
thank...you,"

"... this week I got a copy of an autographed book that was
published by her company. The book is an inspiring collection
of poetry, many written by friends on Myspace. That's right
friends from Myspace wrote poems and she published them to
honor and raise awareness for her granddaughter Candace.
Actually Mimi is her Nana.

This is a must have and it is for a great cause, I have loved
reading it and it reminds that although the world can be cruel
there are many great people that won't sit around apathetically
but would rather choose to do good."

A Heart-Felt Piece of Literature
I would like to thank Mimi for allowing me the opportunity to take part in this book/project. I had the pleasure of speaking with Mimi and Candace on a blog talk radio show live and it was very touching. Every page is filled with classic art and poetry. P. 89 is my page and the title of the piece is called "L.O.V.E." and it was read during the blog interview and I'm happy to say that Candace was emotional...I thank you guys for allowing me the particpate...(Poet/Author Anthony Chavon Hanes/An Abstract World Vol.2 Emotions).......God Bless

Embracing Candace: Anthology One
I am bias. Miriam is a friend of mine. I will never let a child suffer, and I am one of the poets featured in the book.

The collection of tallent all bias aside is excellent, and the reason for this book is about as genuine, and wonderful as can be.

Restoring a smile, and giving a sense of normalcy to a child is a beautiful gift, and to be a part of this, and to consider them friends of the family makes this a no brainer.

As soon as I have my retail license, and business started I will be buying several more copies to sell in my store.

Good poetry for a great cause. Isn't that one of the things that makes poetry what it is? The voice of history.
