A Sneak Peek

As I speak with more and more people who've read my book, You're Only As Sick As Your Secrets:  Sexual Abuse Awareness, Prevention, and Intervention, I am alerted to the fact that there is an audience who is interested in a sequel.  So, I have officially begun writing again and below is a sneak peek at a paragraph in the foreword of my second book that is yet to have a definite title.

Because of my 10 year quest to survive and then heal from the truthful memories that shattered every illusion I’d held about my first 33 years of life, my current daily happenings appeared anything but noteworthy to me.  However, as I began to interact with people who’d either read or heard about my book, I came to understand that others weren’t looking for some fantastic, short-of-miraculous, event-filled depiction but rather just wanted a sort of validation that there truly was reason to push through the pain, disappointment, struggles, fear, anger, and hopelessness in order to reach a place that would reveal that to choose to live in this world, whether literally or figuratively, would not end as one more frustrating, unsuccessful attempt to heal.
