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."

Story Behind The Book

Quills of Fire was an act of creation, and a challenge to the creative process by simply asking what we could create and come up with by using only one word a day, alternating the selection between the writers and giving only 24 hours to come up with our work. Using this process involved a great deal of setting aside the ego and just really getting to the heart of what we wanted to strive to attain. To write through periods of emotional blockage, raw emotion, and sift through it all to come up with what we determined could get out there to touch others lives. The original image for the cover, as far as our conceptualized ideal was to use a phoenix rising out of its ashes. However that idea was nixed since the cover presented didn't please the writers. Instead, a winged messenger without arms was used; the image of a statue located in Daegu, South Korea. The impact of this project was to realize a dream for the talents of Lena and Marilyn. Despite the time differences, the challenges of creation, and personal life events, this work came into its own reality; taking on a life of its own because two women believed.
