Marilyn J Bell was born and raised in California and grew up in the Bay Area. Storytelling started at an early age, as she often entertained herself and her sisters with bedtime stories until they fell asleep. 

 

Later, she began journaling around bedtime, and these words turned into prayers, thoughts and questions as she searched for answers and directions for her life.

 

The poems, prose and stories in her books reflect God's grace in hers and others' lives as they travel life's journeys.
