Stone is the pen name of Angela Marshall. She states that "writing is a passion I've enjoyed since the age of 13. I can remember my favorite elementary school teacher pulling me to the side to encourage me to submit essays every time there was a writing contest." She continues in her words, "I had a very creative mind that should be shared. As a young girl, I would often pretend to be the character of the books I read. My goal is to captivate my readers and tell a story (fact or fiction) with the intent to enlighten them with an unbiased perspective. I am striving to leave a legacy that incorporates motivating, entertaining and inspiring a positive outlook for those in situations that may be grey areas in their life. The writing style I adopted is one that hopefully evokes my readers to a positive place of progression spiritually, emotionally and physically. I've encountered many people, situations and issues that 'incite' my pen to action. Reading & writing feeds my soul and comforts my loneliness. It also provides clarity for the choices I make in life."
