Text Box: In 2006, the Director of a women's center in Camden NJ asked Nicole to prepare a motivational speech to encourage the women during their annual Mother's Day Luncheon.  Their theme was "Loving Who You Really Are" and when Nicole began to prepare her speech she added the tagline "The Queen Within".  Nicole wrote a poem by the same name and presented it at the conference.  The poem's popularity began to grow and Nicole eventually added several other poems to her regal collection.   Thus, In the Company of Queens: Regal Poetry for Real Women was born.  ~ In the Company of Queens is the poetic story of a Little Girl's journey to discover what it truly means to be a Real and Regal Woman. Follow her on her journey as she learns how to love, laugh, live and leave a legacy for her own children. This 40-page book full-color book is filled with gorgeous photography and enchanting, empowering poems. Along with the pictures (some of which are featured on this site,) you'll enjoy the following poems: The Queen Within I Dream with My Eyes Wide Open Your Finest Hour is about to Begin I Am What God Says I Am I'm Available, but I'm Not Free Marriage Material and More!
