Marilyn Celeste Morris
Marilyn Celeste Morris, multipublished author of The Women of Camp Sobingo and Forces of Nature, and My Ashes of Dead Lovers Garage Sale, has also published Sabbath’s Room, a supernatural mystery, and Once a Brat, part travelogue, part therapy session about her world-wide travels with her army officer father from her birth in 1938 to his (their) retirement in 1958.
She is the co-facilitator of the Fort Worth Lupus Support Group, North Texas Chapter, Lupus Foundation of America and counsels newly diagnosed persons and their families about the ravages of systemic lupus erythematosus. She has taped various radio interviews, such as Artist First, local cable television programs, most recently Sizzlin’Seniors on Comcast Television and is accustomed to speaking to groups on the subject of lupus.Being involved in the military brats communities, the Lupus Foundation and her children and grandchildren are her passions.
She has a black cat named Cleopatra, or, rather, Cleopatra has Marilyn! Marilyn says “Cleopatra is highly neurotic, but I love her anyway.” When she can find the time in between her work and her writing work, her family and her involvement in her many organizations, Marilyn is a voracious reader, “reading almost anything,” she says, and watching the Discovery Channel and History Channel.
