Books In Sync Recognizes Author Dawn Huffaker

About The Author:

 

Dawn Huffaker lives in the mountains of the southwestern corner of New Mexico. She is the eldest daughter of two educators.

 

At the age of eight months, Dawn became mysteriously ill and never learned to walk. She has had to learn to deal with her world from a wheelchair. With the help of her family, she is leading a productive life.

 

In junior high, Dawn discovered her passion for poetry. Some very special teachers took the time to show her the beauty of words. From that point on, she wrote poetry for family and friends, and published works in the school newspapers.

 

In college, she received her bachelor's degree in Computer Science, and minors in English and Biology. Dawn went on to found a local computer store. The store operated for seventeen years. Then, she spent two months in the hospital dealing with a health concern, and had to close her business.

 

When Dawn returned home, she spent several months recuperating. During this time, she began exploring the idea of publishing her first book of poetry, and selecting her very best poems to put in volume one. That was how Flights of Fancy came to be.

 

Currently, Dawn has published her second book Flower Escapes which is a collaboration with Michele Duncan, an amazing floral photographer. This book is available through Amazon.

Editorial Reviews

Flights of Fancy is a collection of poetry by the very talented Dawn Huffaker. The name of this volume was derived from the series of `flights', or chapters, each of which was inspired by a variety of forms of nature. The author portrays the gamut of emotions, from joy to sadness, beauty to observations of both humans and nature. The majority of her poetry was inspired by the scenic views of southwestern New Mexico so abundant outside the windows of her home.

 

Flights of Fancy represents poems which were written over a period of 25 years in the author's life. Topics range from the various phases of her life to three of her greatest loves - God, rodeo, and computers. Using several different poetic schemes, Ms. Huffaker has created a collection which is always inspirational, deft at portraying particular images, and evocative of higher emotions.

 

The best pieces in this book, in my opinion, are those about nature. As those of us who love New Mexico know, the state presents a unique majesty of natural beauty and the evidence of God's skillful touch in designing magnificent glory. The author is quite skillful in describing this splendor just right:

 

"soft purple glow/whispers across the sky/as the sun yawns/and exits the day;

soft pink glow/nudges the stars/from the dance floor/and sends them off to bed."

 

I love these lines and their personification of celestial bodies.

 

Reading the poetic lines in Flights of Fancy makes me wish I were in New Mexico once again and able to view it through the author's eyes; as she writes:

 

"I live on the shoulder/of a sleeping giant/his nightshirt is made/ of the junipers/and pines."

 

Flights of Fancy is a truly touching and beautiful work sure to provide inspiration to anyone who reads it.
