I Took a Book With Me

7/8/2016

Last week, during a feral bout of much needed get-in-the-car-and-go, I had the presence of mind to make a quick stop by the library and let a book pick me. Armed with that, a pair of Keens and a bottle of water, I headed for the mountains, only stopping to get a really amazing cup of hot cocoa (second best I ever had) on the road.

The book proved to be a powerful companion, and am still savoring it in the back of my mind, still learning from it.

For many reasons.

This is a book about writing, a book about loving, a book about living. A book about being intentional in the midst of a s*** storm that would have sent most of us packing. Laura Munson's voice is super authentic (she actually wrote the book as a journal, a way to save her sanity during a tough summer, and what do you know, it became her first published work - best seller to boot. I love life. )

So here, you go. This is Not the Story You Think it Is... a Season on Unlikely Happiness. I think you will like it.

Oh, and Laura leads writing Retreats, in her home in Montana... just sayin'.

"Every time I read your blog I am so profoundly happy I did. The truth you speak is just mindboggling. The real, real voice you have.

You put out so many heartfelt blog pieces that touch my heart and move me down the right path at the right time. Pure beautiful magic girlie. I love you for this.
