Hello Everyone,
I hope you’re having an amazing day. I’ve been working on my first book, Between Friends: Sharing, Healing, Transforming, which is currently being reviewed by an Editor. Hopefully, after revisions, I will be able to move onto the next step of publishing.
Between Friends tells the story of six close friends who share their tales of an event or person who changed their life in a meaningful way. The stories touch on a lot of issues that women face throughout their lives; some of which may be viewed by others as controversial. The power of sharing their stories not only brings healing and transformation to the storytellers but to each friend in the group.
Excerpt from the first chapter of the book (“The Invitation”): a calling to the readers to become part of the storytelling and part of the group of friends.
“If we all knew it would turn out this way, would we still do it all over again?
Everyone asks that question at least once in their life.
Everything happens for a reason.
People come to us for a reason.
Relationships develop for a reason.
Discovering the reason is the key to life and possibly the answer to ‘would we do it all over again?’
. . . . . . .
Recently our discussions have become very enlightening, and I thought maybe you’d like to listen in on them, kind of be part of our discussions. I invite each one of you to join our group by reading this novel not to just escape or sort out the plot or theme of each character, but with an inner participation in which to gain more insight into yourself, your belief systems and human nature. Some of our topics may seem odd or foreign to you. They did to some of us too but try to come to the group with an open mind and curiosity for exploring new ideas and concepts. Maybe our discussions will be useful to you and other women (and men too), and who knows maybe you will start your own group of soul sisters. I hope you enjoy the discussions, information, and basic good fun.”
I hope you enjoyed this short example of my work. Check in again soon as I share more excerpts from Between Friends, and to see what other projects I am working on these days.
With Love and Light,
Denise
