Celia Anderson has been hard at work on her "Arkansas Angels" tour for her debut novel, Love Ocean. Although the author says at times her schedule is gruesome, she does it for a reason.
"This is something that is so much bigger than me," Anderson says, "Each time I stand before a student body, my goal is to inspire--for them to see themselves in me and realize anything is possible." Judging from the reviews, she is doing just that. "The students laugh, they cry and most off all, they don't forget," said a teacher from McClellan High School, "What she brings is real and reaches them in a magical way."
