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:
“Th’ increasing prospect tires our wand’ring eyes.
Hills peep o’er hills, and Alps on Alps arise!
A perfect Judge will read each work of Wit
With the same spirit that its author writ:
Survey the Whole, nor seek slight faults to find
Where nature moves, and rapture warms the mind;”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
