About Anjuelle
Floyd credits her love for books and even greater love for writing to the time she spent in her Granny’s house as a child and teenager. A lover of the written word herself, her Granny had amassed a collection of books and magazines that, while Floyd now knows it to have been small, says she felt was very large at the time. She would spend many hours curled up on the floor in front of the case that held them and diligently leaf through their captivating pages.
“This was all great preparation for writing. My grandmother also told me stories about her family, most of whom were deceased. She gave me a great love for family, family connections and stories.”
It is this love that Floyd passes along through her own written words.
A graduate of Duke University, Floyd received her MA in Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies, San Francisco. She has also received a MFA in Creative Writing from Goddard College, Port Townsend, Washington, as well as several certificates of participation from the Hurston-Wright Writers’ Week and The Voices of Our Nations Writing Workshops.
When she is not writing acclaimed manuscripts, she is teaching fiction classes at Perelandra College or coaching others through seminars, such as The Need for Family and using The Writing Process as a Path Toward Self-discover and Healing.
Anjuelle is the author of Keeper of Secrets…Translations of an Incident—a collection of interconnected short stories released in 2007—and The House—a novel released in 2010.
