Chris Martin

Chris Martin is a corporate communications professional with a passion for connecting with people at a heart level through writing. He's written poetry since he was a teenager and has always enjoyed wordplay - especially when it can impart wisdom or touch the heart. He also finds the writing process therapeutic in expressing his feelings. After his wife of twenty years passed away from cancer, he turned to poetry to deal with some of the emotions he was going through. His first book, Feeling My Way Through the Midlands: Poetic Perspectives on Life After Loss, is a poetic memoir of his loss and his grief journey, written with the hope that others experiencing grief and loss can find solace in his words. Outside of writing, Chris is an avid reader of history, an amateur genealogist, a fan of travel, and enjoys exploring beaches. He lives in the Atlanta, Georgia, area with his two children.
