Self Published Author
Terry O'Neal



ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Terri A. O'Neal She is the author of two volumes of poetry, Motion Sickness and The Poet Speaks In Black. O'Neal is also the author of the children's book "Ev�ry Little Soul." This inspirational piece encouraging strength and endurance in our children was wonderfully illustrated by Ms. Wendy Robinson�an artist out of Cape Town, South Africa. Together they have crafted a magnificent book for readers of all ages. In a recent interview with Awareness Magazine, O�Neal was asked �How do you feel poetry relates to the average person?� She answered, �Well, it is difficult (especially during this day and time) to specify what an �average� person is. As far as I know, I am an average person. I have good days and bad days, a family that I couldn�t live without and at the same time they drive me crazy. I think that people from all walks of life have been introduced and possibly identified with some form of poetry being that much of what the words are about are average, everyday experiences and feelings.�
Terry O�Neal (maiden name Williams) was born and raised in Stockton California. In 1991, she established her residence in Sacramento where she attended CSUS, majoring in Criminal Justice. O�Neal is a wife and mother of four children. She works part-time as a secretary for her husband�s communications corporation. She is also the founder of her own publications company that was established in the year 2000 to publish her work.
She has been featured in several magazines such as Awareness Magazine, Spoken Vizions, Page One Literary, and Poetic License. Her poetry has been published in many reviews - the Oyez Review, Taj Mahal Review, and The Big Lick Literary Review, just to name a few.
