Sheryl Lynne Thomas-Perkins

An insatiable optimist and unapologetic Christian, Sheryl Lynne Thomas-Perkins is a quick-witted southern California native, an award-winning writer, poet, and speaker. Her passion for writing surfaced during youth when she effortlessly earned top grades in English courses. Her love of writing increased when she won an award for her first poem, written just hours before the deadline. She enjoys diverse forms of artistic expression and loves to dance. She's an art collector who has won awards for imaginative decorations and she creates environmentally friendly art from books and magazines. After an extensive career in civil service, following her work as a news editor and reporter for publications throughout the United States of America, she has crafted a beautiful, creative, and engaging reading experience. Lavishing Love is an unexpected treat and immersive anthology with heart-warming romances, tear-jerking poetry, and moving laments. It is full of her favorite things, which readers happily relate to: music, special occasion celebrations, interior design, family fiascos, intrigue, love letters, unique culinary experiences, bespoke fashion and furniture, and lots of love.
