“We all have potentially powerful stories deep within us, just waiting to be called forth . . .
[they flow] from your many years of life experience, your unique perspective and way of seeing the world; and your ability to access a wide range of feelings . . .
our stories may help inspire someone to move beyond his or her own challenges – knowing that if you’ve been through something similar and survived, then perhaps he or she can, too.”

Julie, thanks for this recommendation. I thought I knew most of the books for writers out there, but this one is new to me. I appreciate you taking the time to post!
