Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m Kimberly Anne Bell, a native of Salisbury, Maryland. My pride and joy are my four daughters and son. I love nature, animals, and mostly anything that exemplifies life. I seek to have an everlasting relationship with the Almighty Father, to confidently soar like an Eagle through this earthly life. The Lord is my strength. I only reach my full capacity when I rely on Christ who is the head of my life and the source of my resilience. I believe that God will get all the glory, now and forever. Today I am a minister, public speaker and author of one book which is my life memoir: The Epitome of Kimmy.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The Epitome of Kimmy: Accept & Embrace It All is my latest book. It is my testimony of finding hope from a painful past. Through this short read, I share my journey from being abandoned by my biological parents at a tender young age to the emotional, physical and sexual abuse that I had to overcome on the path to adulthood. I was inspired to write the book because I believe that without me sharing my journey, it was meant for no reason. I believe that I made it through to let other people know they can be free as well. When you survive, it’s meant to be shared to help someone else. The truth in any form should be exposed. I am inspired to give back to others in any way I can which will always be to share my journey whenever possible.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I have different word documents labeled with notes, memories, and inspirational stories. I highlight keywords or even add a picture or image to help me complete the chapter or stay on track with that particular chapter.
