Violet Niggl

Violet Niggl is recognized by Continental Who’s Who as a Pinnacle Professional in the field of Publishing   a result of her Excellence as an Author. Prior to following her dreams of becoming a Writer, Violet had a forty-two year career in the private and public sector. She was a Corporate Secretary in a Wall Street firm and Director of the Cabinet Office in Ontario, Canada.

While still in Canada, she was encouraged to write a story on reinventing her life, which was published in an anthology of stories called Beyond Coping. Eventually she moved from Canada to Ft. Myers, Florida, where she resides today. While living in Florida, a Valentine love letter she wrote on a whim won a prize and was published in her local newspaper.

After this accomplishment, she was offered a position writing articles for a political newsletter and ultimately became its co-editor. Although Violet has always written short stories since she learned to write at the age of four, it took a dream to inspire her to write a book. Her debut book FIRST LOVE was published on Valentine’s Day 2011, followed by a Spanish translation in September of  that year.  Although currently retired, Violet works full time to promote her most recent book. She is in the process of doing an audio book in addition to English and Spanish versions, which are available in softcover, hardcover and e-book. As a result of the success of her book and the culmination of a lifelong dream, Violet hopes to see her book on the silver screen one day.
