WACO, Texas - s4story -- Low literacy skills are a rising concern in our country. According to research conducted by Statista Research Department, one out of five American adults, or 21%, possess low literacy skills, comprising about 43 million people. One Waco author and book publisher, Kennisha Griffin, has joined the fight to promote literacy and creative writing with her new company, Create and Blossom Literary Studios.

I really enjoyed working with Kennisha. A few years ago one of my students interviewed her on camera to learn about her profession and how she got started. She was and still is the ultimate professional. She was very kind, warm, and pleasant. She even volunteered to travel a VERY LONG distance to make this vision a reality. She represents excellence," says Tiffany Polite Henderson, owner of My Passion Breathes Life
