About

Marilyn Campiz has been a lifelong memoirist, poetess, and writer.  A world traveler, former expatriate teacher presently in back in the USA. She is an active supporter of the arts, collaborating and writing about projects all over the world. 


These are the thoughts the writer began with that started her on her journey,
"What if you lived like you were dying? What would you change? I think that was my turning point. I didn't want to wait for someone to tell me how much time I had left. I don't know how much time I do have, but I do know I don't have forever.  I don't have time to please others.  I don't have time to play games.  I didn't have time to be afraid to live.  None of us do.  I cannot care whether someone approves or not.  So I write what I see and experience along the way, in my own way.  To experience life, every drop of it.  I want to challenge myself to got beyond established perceptions. Sometimes that means to crash long held personal mythologies I encounter along the way.  

I have learned how to let the world show me more and realized I knew so little about life.  I had to be willing to touch and to be touched by the love of others; not being afraid to grow.

With flaws and all, I can only be who I am, reinvention is not required."

Description

<p>FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES<br /><br />At barely nineteen, Angelica Donovan became one of the more successful winners of the T.V. show Our Next Super Model. The world assumed she was destined for a happy, fairy tale life as ‘Angel,’ the beautiful girl who was living the dream; sadly, that wasn’t to be the case. As the years passed, she flashed her million dollar smile to all her fans and fought to stay on top in a profession where you never knew who it was safe to trust while the fashion industry took big bites out of her heart and soul. And trust was a constant challenge for Angel due to the painful childhood secret she guarded as carefully as she did her heart. As a result, she never did find her true love on earth.<br /><br />When she wakes up ‘dead’ from a heart condition a month before her thirty-fifth birthday, Angel is at first relieved to find there is no death, just a change of state, like ice to water, and then she’s scared because her biggest and most important adventure is about to begin.<br /><br />Angelica is chosen to be an angel in training as a spirit guide for three souls on earth! Her assignment is to help two women to gain the courage and confidence to find, recognize and embrace the love that had eluded Angel in life. But her biggest challenge will be to save a very special little girl from the same evil experience that had poisoned Angel’s own earthly happiness and altered the course of her life.<br /><br />Will Angel be able to heal her own shattered soul in the process? And will the three souls she is guiding be able to recognize her, not as a ghostly threat, but as one of those ‘friends in high places’ we all have; the kind who often end up earning their wings.<br /><br /> </p>
