Discover the creative mind of a novelist
Our Goal
To showcase the talent of a restless tomboy writer and the feminine fashions of 1950s Paris.
Who We Are
The Toni Breland Agency (pronounced BREE-lund) is an online entity begun in 2011 in Atlanta, Georgia, to promote the creative efforts of U.S. Southern writer Janet Walker. These efforts include Walker's three-book novel, Amazed By Her Grace, with its controversial themes and complex main character; her melodies and lyrics, many of which educate children or honor outstanding women; and her Amazon.com bestseller, What You Didn't Learn In Trucking School: The Trucker's Little Book of Etiquette.
Our Other Mission
To promote the vintage haute couture of 1950s Paris, a look the author admires on others and which, to some degree, adorns a few of her fictional characters. (Pictured: The author in Saint-Denis, Paris, 2019.)
Songs, Books, and Videos
Original Songs
As a hobby, Walker creates songs for children and sings them a cappella. One, "TheJanWalker's 50 States (Without D.C.)," has received nearly half a million views on YouTube. Children across the U.S., and in countries such as New Zealand, have written to thank Janet for the song.
Walker also creates melodies and lyrics about women who are powerful in life and deeply missed when they have left this life.
Trucking Writer
Walker has worked for many years in the trucking industry. The result of that experience is the delightful What You Didn't Learn In Trucking School: The Trucker's Little Book of Etiquette.
Thanks to U.S. publishing strategist Martha Bullen, the book debuted in 2020 with best-selling rank in five Amazon.com categories.
