Gayle Johnson
www.deliciousbooks.webs.com Gayle Johnson is the fifth of eight children born to the late Charles Johnson, Sr. and Jean Johnson. A native Washingtonian, she now resides in Capitol Heights, Maryland in Princes George County. Reading, writing, and recording newsworthy events has always been a daily pastime for Gayle. Her interest in creative writing was piqued at age fourteen while attending a boarding school where she created her first short story.
Johnson believes she was born to write even though she was diagnosed with dyslexia at an early age. This did not stop her from fulfilling her passion of writing. It only added fuel to the fire of her desire to be successful in the literary world.
In 2006, after the loss of a twenty plus year career in the medical field, Johnson wrote her first masterpiece; a mind grabbing, heart-wrenching fictional story that takes you back in the day where What’s Past is Not Forgotten. From 2008 to 2011 Gayle had 4 books published.
