Hudson-Pierce The Author

Her interest in creative writing paid off; over the years, Hudson-Pierce has written five books, three being free verse poetry:

Friendship Is A Journey (1987)

The Warming of Winter (1989)

To Soar Again! (1994)

Two others are inspirational pieces:

Southern Vignettes (1995)

Turning Points (1996), semi-autobiographical

Columnist Erma Bombeck dedicated her February 26, 1986, column to her friend Hudson-Pierce.

One of Hudson-Pierce's articles, "The Old Steamer Trunk", was published in Guideposts magazine in January 1998. Richard "Dick" Schneider, a senior staff editor at Guideposts, said that Hudson-Pierce's selection was particularly poignant and fitting for the publication. Stories about the article were written in numerous newspapers across the nation.

From 1995-2008, Hudson-Pierce hosted her own television program in Shreveport through Time Warner. She interviewed artists, authors, political figures, or anyone else of interest. She writes an occasional column for the Shreveport Times, one of which is on the difficulties of moving. Another is her autobiographical recollection of Christmas 1957. She has also written for the Bossier Tribune newspaper in Bossier City.

In 2002, Tanya Brasher Alexander, who resides near Shreveport, wrote a biographical poem of Hudson-Pierce's life.

Famous quotes containing the word author:

    My friend devotes himself to his life, whenever he can find the spare time. His motto is: ‘Don’t just sit there: live!’ So he’s too busy to stand, to walk, to do anything, except to live. He even refused to kiss a girl, when invited, on the grounds that it was time again to be living. Schedules are sacred to him.
    Marvin Cohen, U.S. author and humorist. The Self-Devoted Friend, New Directions (1967)
