Welcome to the Featured World of Ink Network here on BlogTalkRadio. Join Host Virginia S Grenier tonight as she talks with Author Eliott McKay. Eliott McKay is a Southern Utah girl who has finally come home to stay. As a young girl, she was forced to abandon her dreams of becoming the tooth fairy, and later in life pursued a career as a writer, which seemed the next logical choice. Her writing quickly started drawing attention and during her university studies, one professor had so much faith in her that he put together a curriculum to allocate time for her to write. Like all free spirits, she had the desire to travel and spent a number of years exploring the world with nothing but her wits and trusty luggage, living out her personal mantra, “Spreading joy, writing books.” Since returning to the states, she has continued to engage in random acts of kindness and doling out smiles to unsuspecting strangers, one page at a time.   Be sure to follow us at our blog, Facebook and Twitter. Also, look for all our World of Ink Network hosts on Facebook and Twitter.
