Twenty-Eight Snow Angels Honored

I'm pleased to announce my memoir, Twenty-Eight Snow Angels: A Widow's Story of Love, Loss and Renewal was named "2013 Beach Book Festival Awards Runner-Up" in the autobiography category! The book continues to bring hope and inspiration to those facing the loss of a loved one. I recently shared my grief story at an event sponsored by the Kok Funeral Homes in Cottage Grove, Minnesota. The Aftercare director in her thank you note wrote: Many spoke of the book being helpful to them. You offered a lot of transparency with care and humor that the audience could relate to and they took home some "tools & hope".  For information on the book visit my website at http://outskirtspress.com/snowangels
Available in e-book and paperback on Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Twenty-Eight-Snow-Angels-Widows-Renewal/dp/1432777041 and at Barnes and Noble http://bn.com/w/twenty-eight-snow-angels/1114818659?ean=2940016268804

  1. I love your poem and the picture. Nothing portrays life more accurately than loss, grief, and then finally acceptance. We all need to move through the stages and be at peace with the process.

    1. Thanks so much, Craig. Moving through the stages even if you weave in and out of them takes time and energy, but eventually a sense of acceptance comes. A new stage of life will evolve, but the memories will remain.
