Jean Ann Owens has written a book entitled "No More Secrets" that is based on the true story of teenagers and women, ages 17-26, involved in a beauty pageant. She says, "Fifteen years ago I made an oath to write about this beauty pageant. I made an oath to write about the prejudices, the cheating and the broken dreams. This book is my attempt to fulfill that oath." To get a copy for $10.00, you may contact Ms. Owens through The International Poetry Hall of Fame, 1 Poetry Plaza, Owings Mills, MD 21117. |
