Keeba Smith is the seventh hatched in Colorado.  Her early interests included political
science, science fiction movies and toying with her brother’s chemistry lab.  At a young
age, she won a prize for writing an essay regarding child safety, and consequently, has
been steady writing ever since.

Keeba began writing in Junior High School, which included her first novelette and a
collection of poems.  As a youngster, she would write plays and essays for church, in
addition, was asked to write compositions for family and friends.  During and after
High School, she worked continually in the administrative field while maintaining
several college courses in business, creative writing and English comprehension and
grammar.

While working, she never withdrew from her love of writing and later surrounded
herself with writers’ elite.  Later, she would wed a longtime family friend and succeed
while studying creative writing and political science.  Her writing and several interests
concluded in 1996 when she became ill and subsequently was informed of a growth on
her brain.

Although anxious and flustered, she woke one morning and informed her spouse she
had total peace and was ready to face what may be the end of her life.  Afterwards,
she stopped working on her then recent novel,
Yellow Rose and immediately began
writing her autobiography,
A Spirit In The Dark.

Today, Keeba faces some intricacies, but her dreams are not dismantled.  Currently,
she is working on a four-part story,
Across the Lines while undertaking the task of
writing a friend’s biography.

When not writing, she enjoys photography, building web sites and playing with her dog,
D.Queen.  She remains infatuated with the entire process of writing and aims for
success on the big screen.

Most recently, during open-mic, Keeba soliloquized,  
Nothing Is What It Seems and
before long, was labeled an "unsettled writer."  Afterwards, was asked who she was in
description, hence she recited,  
This Is Keeba.  (From Keeba’s collection of poems,
Keeba Kornered & Kaptured In Kaptivity.)

Keeba has been published in 'Time After Time' and 'Poets Elite.' With a selective
audience, she has shared her novels,  
Shades Of Bright Pale, The Worker, Big Girl,
Across The Lines
and several others.
Biography
            
                            Keeba:
“I have refused to allow this malady to consume but continue to aspire.  After my open-mic experience, I remain
                            reserved, yet overwhelmed to have received an extended standing ovation; it was so exhilarating and most
                            appreciated.  I graciously accept being labeled a restless cynic and dark poet."
