From the Publisher
Dearest Writer,
The gifts that writing offers us are endless in nature. I am constantly discovering new gifts each time I sit down to write. It never ceases to amaze me.
If there is one thing I hope to share with you through this book, it’s the realization, or better yet the knowing, that these gifts exist within you.
They are already there, waiting for you, ready for you, hoping you will have the curiosity and the courage to go looking for them.
Everything you could ever hope to discover or understand or make peace with or let go of or grow into is already a part of you, just waiting for you to pick up a pen and come find it. It’s all there for you.
