Nancy Stanton

Nancy Stanton was born in the Philippines during post-American occupation and raised among the native tribes in the southern part of the country. She is an avid fan of history both written and oral accounts dating back pre-Spanish era in the Philippines. She moved to California with her family in 1994 where she settled and raised her own children. Nancy embarked on fiction writing while dealing with the horrors of metastatic breast cancer to stay positive and beat the disease hence the book "Asdahlia, Child of the Sea" came about. This is a story of magic and love based on the experiences of the first group of Americans who arrived in the Philippines in the early part of 1900s. Other books that Nancy continues to write are faith-based consistent with her Christian upbringing but writing fiction is her first love and best therapy.
