Title: Forgivenes and other stupid things
Description: "Forgiveness and other stupid things became the premise of my book, based on a short story about my growing up in the inner city in a house filled with domestic violence and abuse. The story was one of 30 published by the Alberta Council of Women?s Shelters in a collection called Standing Together. That story ripped open the scars I thought were healed and forced me to take a look at who I was and who I wanted to be. For years, I struggled with depression, rage and darkness; my shadow side exposed for all to see. It wasn?t until I launched the FIERCE awards in 2010 that I began taking teensy, weensy steps towards a healing journey that has led me to this point in my life. My book shares my journey and the obstacles I?ve had to overcome to get to a place of love and light."--Www.YouAreFierce.com.
