About this title

About the Author:

Karrie Marchbanks, learned early in life that success, in any area of life, is determined by the choices we make every day. As a single mother, then living in Pueblo, Colorado, Karrie learned from personal experience that when our bodies are overweight and undernourished, they don’t hesitate to cry out to us in the form of chronic illness. As a result, Karrie learned the keys to a healthier lifestyle, applied it to her life and felt compelled to share her knowledge with other women along the way. She was later led to write Sweet Tea and Cornbread with hopes of inspiring, motivating and empowering African American women who want to reclaim their bodies and live a healthier lifestyle. Sweet Tea and Cornbread is her first book, but you can be sure it won’t be her last! She was nominated for an African American Literary Award for 2013 and currently resides in North Carolina. Karrie continues to mentor women of all ages who have a desire to better their life’s circumstances.
