     Mrs. Johnson-Bryant currently resides in Greensboro, North Carolina with her husband, poet, Gregory W. Bryant Sr.  Yolanda obtained her degree in computer science from Denver Technical College.  She is currently a student at the University of Phoenix and plans on transferring to the University of North Carolina Greensboro in the spring of 2010 where she plans to change her major to literary science. 

     Yolanda is currently a full time freelance writer, novelist, editor and a literary and entrepreneurial advocate. She is the founder and owner of Literary Wonders! and Bryant Consulting. She is also the editor for AMAG: Awareness Magazine.

     Ms. Johnson-Bryant's love for writing started at an early age, when she started writing poetry as a child and songs for a group that she formed with friends in high called the "Purple Passionates".  In mid 1998, she entered and won a short story contest sponsored by Playboy magazine  and Fastweb.com. She started her first novel project in November 1998, which stemmed several projects; "My Daughter's Keeper" being the first completed project.  

     To date this author has three books published; My Daughter's Keeper is no longer in print. My Daughter's Keeper was the debut novel for the author who launched the reveal of the title on December 4, 2004 at Black Images Book Bizaar in Dallas, Texas.. She re-worked and re-published that title as her second work and titled it Circumstances.

     Yolanda's literary network, Literary Wonders presents a yearly anthology, which the first titled Crimes of Passion: The Anthology was released June 2006. Mrs. Johnson-Bryant co-authored the anthology which includes short stories from authors such Rhonda M. Lawson, Belinda Williams, John A. Wooden, L.J. Wilson, Sydney Molare, Vincent Alexandria, Gregory Townes, Jana Jay, T.L. Gardner, Deanna Michelle Smith and Cherry Hampton.

     She is currently working on five projects to include the sequel to Circumstances and Second Time Around: The Anthology which includes authors Vanessa A. Johnson, Harold L. Turley II, Rhonda M. Lawson, L. M. Tatum, Rowena Winfrey and Kim Robinson. 

     Be on the lookout for this bright and emerging talent as she takes the literary world by storm. One word at a time, she intends on "taking it by force"!
