Autorenporträt
Renée Ecckles-Hardy began her journey as a published author in 2020 with the publication of I Am Beautifully Brown and I AM Boldy Brown, positive affirmation journals for brown girls and boys. Three additional journals are a part of her launch collection. An avid writer, Renée is preparing to release her first children's picture books Beautiful Nappy Headed-Tar and Get to Know Me From A to Z: Black Boys are More Than the Skin You See. Both works encompass themes of self-worth and confidence, particularly geared towards children of color. Renée uses her poetry, prose and skits to connect with audiences of all ages. With a background as a school psychologist and master life-coach, Renée's writing approach offers a unique, well-rounded perspective to her endeavors. She presents each work as an opportunity to start intergenerational and small group conversations. Married for 30 years, Renée is an empty nester residing with her husband in West Virginia. Her two adult children, Joshua and Caleb, serve as the inspiration behind some of her works. Renée is a grandmother of one who can be found enjoying walks and empowering others when she's not in the company of family or reading a great book. "Making sure readers of color, especially children, have the opportunity to read books that are about them while providing content that all children can learn from is my passion." ~ Renée Ecckles-Hardy
