Author, Media Personality Tinnie Garlington stops by Good Deeds w/Dr. Renee Sund

Born and raised in Atlanta GA Tinnie Garlington has always had a passion for teaching. As she grew older "life"  happened and she became a mother at the age of 14. Even though she traveled from school to school, living with  anyone who would take her in, she never gave up on learning. Through those experiences she began to write  in notebooks  about how she was feeling and in some cases make up stories so that she could escape her reality.  A high school  dropout with no one to turn to but God, she decided at the age of 20 to go back to school to  obtain her GED. The journey was still bumpy, but through her will to succeed, she graduated with honors. Now the Atlanta born "Grady Baby" Tinnie C. Garlington embarked on her passion to motivate and encourage individuals to see beyond their past. Don't Look Back, Look Forward was birthed from a dark place. Tinnie  discovered healing through writing and wrote poetry and plays, yet was too afraid to move forward on her dreams t to use this material to teach and encourage others. Well, a close friend and her mother encouraged Tinnie to stop being afraid of the greatness that was inside of her and act on what God has given her. A small yet powerful  book was pulled from her personal library and now the world can share in the thoughts hidden in her heart. Her  hopes is that her first book titled "Don't Look Back, Look Forward" will capture the  attention of those who are  looking for away forward and encourage them to never give up and allow the hard times to serve as a solid f oundation for growth and a positive future.
