"New Vernon, New Jersey November 19, 2007:  Marcia Ivans has a new collection of poetry. Over Easy  will both delight readers and give them cause to reflect, definitely a gift from her heart. Beginning with reminiscences from childhood times, in Over Easy, the reader walks with Ivans through difficult relationships, the deaths of dear friends, on to personal growth and acceptance, and ends by sharing lighthearted humor about everyday situations.  Her honesty and wit ring true.  Marcia Ivans wastes no words in her writing and jumps right into the core of her feelings.  From the first poem, “Reflections,” she dares the reader to share the ride. Ivans’ first book of poetry, Yesterday, A Collection of Thoughts, was published in 1981, and re-released in 2003."

 “Marcia Ivans’ poetry is elegantly simple - the poems we have in our heads but never put on paper.  It takes insight and courage to express such raw emotion and cloak it in the everyday defining moments that make up our lives.  There are many moments of self awareness when the poems take us off the page and into hidden places in our own hearts. That is the magic of Ms. Ivans writing.”
