Linda Ellis spent years working in the corporate environment, but after her first poem was shared on a syndicated radio program in 1994, an alternative career began to emerge and she soon came to the realization that her true passion was writing. Because no promotion or raise received from her boss could ever equal the satisfaction she felt when she would hear from those whose heart had been touched by her words, she made the decision to leave the corporate world behind to pursue her dream, inspiring others through her writing and speaking. Today she shares her inspirations through her company, "Linda's Lyrics." In addition to writing, she is an inspirational speaker and makes a special connection with her audiences through her insightful and thought-provoking words. Her poem, The Dash is an international classic.
