Steven J. Backman, world famous toothpick artist, has been writing poetry for over 25 years. His passion for poetry began as a young adult. Steven remembers when his mother Harlene used to write poems on paper and read them to him as a child.

During a recent interview, Steven said "I am keeping my mother’s legacy alive by writing poems about faith, inspiration, compassion, motivation, nature, family, life, love and miracles."

Steven’s mother was stricken with COVID-19 in April of 2020 and has been through a horrific illness since then. A recent fall made matters even worse. Through so many miracles, Steven’s mother is overcoming her illness day by day. Miraculously, she is walking with her walker like she did before her fall. She is truly a fighter.

Steven was inspired to release this book to honor his mother for her bravery and courage during her difficult health crisis. He wrote the book before her illness.

Steven’s book entitled "I Have Faith" was created entirely on his iPhone. It is currently available for purchase.
