The Writing on the Wall: Astonishing story of mystery, adventure and women breaking limits.
This gripping true story, rich with mystery, adventure, and women breaking boundaries, will captivate you and entertain. The author intertwines insights with humor and candor, from the challenges of growing up to growing a startup business with family life, legal battles and much more.
On a ship voyage from Europe, a chance encounter between an American student and a Fulbright Scholar from India brings uncanny predictions. Although at first dismissed, they begin to come true. An intriguing story intertwines love, lawsuits and business with a questioning thread, "Was it fated to happen?"
The author's career begins in a New York City advertising agency where she breaks through a glass ceiling of seventy men, and subsequently runs a successful startup. Her business attracts ADWEEK Magazine of New York. In 1983, the magazine places her first on their list of "The Dynamic Dozen." She was the only woman with children. It should have been smooth sailing, but sharks were circling. A court battle follows when a law turns from gray to black.
Whether skiing the powdery snow in Aspen, socializing in mansions at the beach or raising children while running a business, each adventure brings with it mountains to climb and solutions. The narrative will make you laugh at humanity, provoke anger at infuriating situations and motivate to reach goals.
The mesmerizing and inspirational story spans a pivotal time in history, yet much has not changed. Unfolding events will invigorate and provide ideas for young women, while older women will identify and examine choices. Men will learn about women and the spiritual can ponder on a deeper dimension.

About the Author

Marilyn Howard broke through the glass ceiling at Grey Advertising of New York City before launching an innovative startup in 1970 at age 27. Creative Freelancers. Inc. was the first agency to connect businesses with freelance artists and writers. It thrived for over 25 years in the center of Manhattan, while she raised a family, fought a big legal battle and socialized in the Hamptons. ADWEEK Magazine of New York picked her for their feature, "The Dynamic Dozen,” those women under forty they identified as most likely to succeed. In 1997, her company became the first agency on the Internet. The author holds a B.F.A. from Syracuse University.
