Eastyn is an African American poet who was born in Los Angeles, California but was raised in Lancaster, California. Her love of poetry grew when she was in the 9th grade. In her Literature class, she was assigned to write her first poem, "You'll Never See Me Fall Apart." After writing her first poem, she used poetry throughout the years as an expression. Eastyn has written over 350 poems. Prisoner in My Thoughts is a reflection of her life. Eastyn now lives in Las Vegas, Nevada with her three children. When she's not writing, you can find her spending time with her children and family, working with her team, or curled up with a good book and a glass of red wine.
