About the Author - Thoughts of Words Marie Jones - a very artistic and creative writer of poems, although this is her first book featuring a selection of her work, she took the decision to steer away from the comedy style writing of which she started. A collection of her work have been put together to include short stories of life, some with happiness and others with sadness, and a few where most people can relate to from their own lives and situations. Her poems are written to give support to inner guidance and strength. Each poem carries a message or tells a story within its own unique way, some have been based on real-life experiences or have been requested by family and friends to be written by the author, but names and events that are featured are all based on a non-fictional version of events.
