"Cover up your screens! Tell your phone to take a hike! Get ready to journal your way to more joy, creativity, and healing than you can begin to imagine." -Harriet Lerner, Ph.D., author of The Dance of Anger and Why Won't You Apologize?
"Marcia Cebulska's Skywriting journal is the perfect jumping-off point for anyone interested in fun and insightful guided self-discovery. Where the typical prompt-journal author is an invisible, omniscient narrator leaving the reader/writer to complete this journey alone, she relates fascinating and deeply personal stories, which gives us permission to be authentic and honest in our own writing. With thought-provoking, challenging, and playful prompts and questions, she compels us to dig deep and hold nothing back, because she holds nothing back. A satisfying and inspirational journal I enthusiastically recommend to writers and non-writers alike."
- LS Hawker, USA Today Bestselling Author of The Drowning Game
Marcia Cebulska is an American novelist, playwright, and screenwriter. Although she spent most of her childhood living behind her parents’ Polish bakery in a Chicago working-class neighborhood, she always had a yen for travel and exotic foods. These early interests are evident in her recent novel, Watching Men Dance. Before she turned her hand to fiction, she enjoyed a decades-long career writing for the stage and screen. Her critically acclaimed plays have been performed at thousands of venues worldwide and her screenwriting has aired on PBS. Cebulska has received the Dorothy Silver Award, the Jane Chambers International Award, several Master Artist Fellowships. Thematically, Cebulska’s work has often reflected social justice issues such as women’s rights, gay rights, race relations, domestic violence, and homelessness. The recipient of many commissions, she wrote Now Let Me Fly for the national celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Brown v. Board decision. She has been writer-in-residence at The University of Georgia, Mary Anderson Center for the Arts, Marion College, and The William Inge Center for the Arts. Her non-fiction book Skywriting, a journaling guide, was published in 2019. Her novel Watching Men Dance, about the relationship between a female photographer who loves travel and adventure and a Native American dancer who will not fly, was released in September of 2020. Marcia has lived in Chicago, New York, Santa Cruz, Seattle, Miami, London, Copenhagen, Athens, and on the Greek island of Crete, but now resides in Topeka, Kansas with her husband, historian Tom Prasch. She has one daughter, Inge Hansen,(co-author of The Ethical Sell-out) and one grandson, Judah Hansen.
