About Ellen
|
|
|
|
|
Ellen Bailey was born in
Puritan Mines, West Virginia, a small, close-knit community of hard-working
coal miners. The town is located at the southern tip of the state
amid the beautiful Appalachia Mountains. She has lived there her whole
life and has seldom ventured beyond her roots.
She wrote her first poem
when she was in the third grade; it was a poem about the country of
Holland.
She has been a regular contributor to the Williamson Daily
News, a local newspapers, and a great many of her poems were first
published in its columns under the name of Matilda Ellen Brown, her
maiden name. |
|
Ellen is a God-Fearing
woman with a wonderful sense of humor. Both of these traits are reflected
in the type of poetry she writes. She draws upon her life experiences
and her belief in the Bible for the inspiration for her poems. |
