LOCAL POET RECEIVES INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION AND RECORD BREAKING BOOK SIGNING

Florida poet, one of the top 200 poets in the WORLD, held book signing to standing room only of over 130 attendees at Boca Museum of Art on Oct. 2. All proceeds from the book go to Phoenix Award, for women who have faced diversity.

BOCA RATON, Fla.- Abby Waters, author of From Hearts 2 Arts and president of Abbys Idea Factory is being recognized internationally as one of the top 200 best poets in the world for her poem, The Admirer," which is featured in her book.

On Thursday, Oct. 2, the Boca Museum of Art sponsored a book signing event for Waters in conjunction with the Strategic Business Alliance and BAM, the museums business networking association. The event was standing room only with more than 130 attendees. Melissa Martin Keel, director of museum development at Boca Museum of Art, said the event was "unique and extraordinary."

Waters had even the presenters in tears with her inspiring words. The culmination of the evening honored three cancer survivors and a book signing. Unknown for her writing ability, Waters, has kept silent on her many poetry awards until now. She comes from a long line of writers in her family. She also has been commissioned to write an unpublished piece for an upcoming book that will be released early next year. This will be the third offer for publication in the last year.

From Heart 2 Arts proves good things come in small packages and great things come from the small package inspiration that fits in a pocket or pocket book. There are many lessons to be learned from this poetic endeavor while raising money for an exceptional cause. Waters will donate the proceeds of her book, From Hearts 2 Arts, to her newly formed Phoenix Award for women who have faced adversity.

Waters said, "True passion is always in fashion and beautiful words are timeless." True to her word, she has titled her soon to be released poem "Timeless," that will be featured in a tabletop book with poetry with other top poets worldwide.
