I am three thousand words into my next publication. Its working title is NO PLACE TO LAY HER HEAD - one woman's journey through grief.
It is my hope that by sharing this journey it will be of help to others. It is not an easy story to tell. I am trying to keep it simple but I learned a long time ago that it is not always easy to be simple.
The writing is definitely cathartic. I find that with each word I type, I am coming a little bit closer to the way I am truly feeling. Yes, feelings are elusive. They don't want to be identified, singled out, or pinned down in any way. They want to sometimes hide; sometimes fill a headline; and sometimes change every thirty seconds.
I have no idea how long I will be working on this project before I will feel ready to share my journey. It is this writer's hope that once it is finally released that it will be of benefit to others who have lost a loved one.
