Smeared Eyeliner & Faded Lipstick: Mending Broken Wings and Writing the Manuscript to the Play

Huntsville, AL, November 20, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Caneeka E. Miller has plunged into the world of self-publishing. This new author has compiled her best poetry and written her first book; entitled Smeared Eyeliner & Faded Lipstick, which is also available on Amazon.com. Wanting to have full control of her writings, this author published her book in conjunction with Lulu, (www.lulu.com), the world’s fastest-growing provider of print-on-demand books.

Smeared Eyeliner & Faded Lipstick is a diverse work of original poetry. The poems articulate a variety of subject matters, from the different faces of love passionately and painfully, to growing up without and never meeting her biological father, to educating others on the importance of ending violence against women through education. Caneeka plans to donate 10% of her proceeds to a Domestic Violence shelter in order to better support this cause. Caneeka Miller wrote Smeared Eyeliner & Faded Lipstick as a way to share her experiences with the world.

Growing up a shy young lady, Caneeka Miller has been writing poetry since the tender age of eleven after finding a Paul Laurence Dunbar book in her aunt’s attic. From that moment poetry became more than a hobby but a way of life. Those that know Caneeka have witnessed her write words that would later form a poem on napkins, sticky notes, on her hand, on the wall of the shower; anywhere she could make words so that she wouldn’t forget them. She has published a few poems throughout grade and high school but never a compilation of poetry into book form. Receiving a Bachelor of Science in Human Development with a concentration in Family Studies from the University of Alabama, Caneeka has always had the desire to make an impact on families whether through activism or through the written world. Caneeka hopes to help the younger generation discover their hidden voices so that they can change the world: One word at a time.
