 A PAPUA New Guinean author Veronica Marme is seeking sponsors to help her publish her book titled Woman of Integrity.

Marme described her book as an autobiography of how she was raised in the wilderness for 20 years before starting her ministry.

“This book is about how I was brought up by my foster mother, a white woman, and the journey I took in ministering on the media for over 20 years,” she said.

Marme, of Chimbu parentage, was put her through formal education overseas by her foster parent before she graduated in journalism at the University of Papua New Guinea.

She then worked for media organisations in the country for 20 years and then later joined Kundu two as a producer for a church programme called Living your destiny and church focus which were launched this year.

Marme said the book was going through the publishing process but she need K100,000 to pay for the publishing and marketing packages.

She hopes the basis of the book can be made into a movie.
