Ginger
B. (Barbara) Collins began her writing career as a high
school student in Huntington, West Virginia. Covering basketball games
for the school paper and writing ad copy and press releases for a local
dress shop gave her that first thrill of seeing her name in print. A career
in sales, marketing, and public relations followed, spanning over 25 years
and taking her from West Virginia to Columbus, Ohio, and on to Philadelphia,
before her move to Atlanta in 1993.
