Autorenporträt
Millicent Elaine Williams is the author of countless essays written throughout her educational journey that spanned from 1969 to 2004. As an English major, she has also written many unpublished short stories. She resides today in the East Bay area near San Francisco, California. Prior to moving to California in 2008, she lived in Indianapolis, Indiana for 21 years and then in Atlanta, Georgia for 23 years. Her short story "I Don't Want to Hear Boom" is the up close reality of a woman who timidly cowers in her home while witnessing a domestic disturbance from her next door neighbors. In 2004, she joined the Dirty House writers group where she and other fellow writers shared their short stories on Sunday evenings over wine and snacks. One of the short stories she shared was "AKA Gertrude Goodwin" which briefly, yet vividly tells the story of a singer who struggles with her identity, parenting, drugs, and expectations. Two of her other short stories, "Go Twyla Go" and "The Fried Turkey," showcase her diversity and depth as a creative writer. Respectively, the first one is a warm story of a young homeless girl who desires to be on the track team, and the second one is the amusing story of a married couple experiencing communication and sexual challenges. All the short stories she has written were just for fun, but the ones mentioned here possess potential for further development as stage or big screen productions. Her academic awards and recognitions are as follows: 1975 IPS School #70 Spelling Bee Champion 1976 IPS School #70 Spelling Bee Runner-up 1978 IPS School #59 Scholastic Achievement Award in Mathematics 1982 Northwest High School diploma 1984 Completion Certificate from Indiana School for the Blind and Crossroads Rehabilitation Center 1990 Completion Certificate from Georgia Tech Extensional Center Vocational Program 1997 GSU Support Services Academic Excellence Certificate 1998 GSU Support Services Academic Excellence Certificate 1998 CBS 60 Minutes segment featuring the use of electronic Braille note takers 1999 GSU African American Academic Recognition Certificate 1999 National Dean's List Book Entry 2000 National Golden Key Honors Society 2001 National Dean's List Book Entry 2001 Georgia State University Bachelor of Arts Degree in Secondary English Education 2002 Who's Who Publication 2004 Western Michigan University Master of Arts Degree in Blind and Low Vision Studies 2004 Who's Who Publication 2005 ACVREP Certification in Vision Rehabilitation Therapy 2007 Faith, Family, and Friends Board member 2010 ACVREP Certification in Vision Rehabilitation Therapy 2010 Los Angeles Times article featuring the use of raised maps in architectural design 2012 Toastmasters International member 2014 Published author of Vada's Vittles
