Beltran, Sandra P.: - From a young age, Sandra Beltran's mind soared with creative thoughts. While the world around her was frightening and chaotic, she created stories in her head to live a different life. Putting pen to paper became her medicine and escape from fear and abuse. It brought her clarity and the power to believe in herself.When she was ten, an English teacher said to her that her writing was terrible. This comment stayed with her for a long time. Her professional path led her to hotel marketing; at fifty, she decided to change careers. She took a writing class for fun. During the course her mind took over, and before she knew it, she had written a book, "Just Keep Moving," a memoir of hope and healing. She also found her voice in poetry.Sandra lives in Austin, Texas, and enjoys working out, spending time with her children, and helping to connect people.
