A Professional Writer


Go to content

My source of strength as a writer is when fellow writers and readers try to convince me I am "gifted" . . .
And I believe the following . . .


"Most people get to live in a house . . .
but a writer has to live in the world"

Welcome to my house . . .

POINTS OF INTEREST

2024 /2025!. . . Looking forward to . . .

Adding my books to AUDIO! Taking
"Secrets in the Sand" on the road (by Video) and trying my hand at travel writing. And I will be hosting my Blogsite describing "What It Was Like . . ." to write for a major publisher and a newspaper, my first book signing, and my first rehearsals for my play. It will be weekly at www.prowriterthrills.com. This should be great!

2021 - 2023! . . .

Reaping what I've sown . . .

People are reading what I've written.

"Ages\Compared" in particular is striking a chord. It's written in family heirloom form that, I'm told, any family can relate to.

"Hitting The Pavement: A Journalist's 2-Year Memoir of Homelessness" is receiving glowing reviews for its detail and timeliness.

2020! . . .

"Ages\Compared", By Ivy Dykens-Hollins, with Faye Hollins-Moore. Available on www.Amazon.com. See "Ages\Compared" tab for details.

"Hitting The Pavement", The Play!
Titled, "Weightlessness!!". See website www.weightlessness.biz.

2019 . . . "Hitting The Pavement: A Journalist's 2-Year Memoir of Homelessness" Now Available on Amazon (Paperback & Kindle) at www.amazon.com. And see my Author's page at Amazon.com for my other works. Thanks to generous donors on GoFundMe who helped me to focus on the book, I was able to finish this very timely story and the stageplay based on the book. Now a fundraiser is helping me to adapt the play into a Screenplay in order to make its message more far- reaching. It will be produced through my production company, TWIN TOWERS Productions. Please see www.gofundme.com. (and search "Weightlessness!!", The Screenplay!!) NOTE: Part of the book sales, box office proceeds and now film sales will always go to homeless services. See Details about the play at www.weightlessness.biz.

THE BACKSTORY


Having lived in six shelters in two years, I was able to document many of what I term "The stories of the streets". And, being a responsible journalist, I tell these stories from all points of view, including the homeless, merchants, clergy, law enforcement, and more. Then I wrote it in play form, titled, "WEIGHTLESSNESS!!". It is based on the Journal I kept while living in a Winter-Only Shelter. And, now, it is being transformed into a Screenplay.
