Donna is giving away a signed copy of The Freedom of Letting Go. Friday, July 27, we will draw a name from those who leave comments on this post. I hope you win!
“I cannot remember a time I didn’t want to write,” Donna says.
“I wrote my first poem out of necessity when I was nine years old. It was
Mother’s Day and I didn’t have money to buy my mother a gift so I wrote her a
poem. The second one I wrote at the age of 10 for Memorial Day. Our minister
distributed copies to church members as they walked into the service. I wrote my
third poem at the age of 11 when my dad walked out of his 22-year marriage to my
mother. I found even at that young age I could express my feelings on
paper.”

Inspiring!
Letting go is definitely hard. We are told we must persevere, hang in there, etc. But, sometimes letting go is the right thing to do. Love the cover design.
Thank you for visiting my blog. I agree that learning to let go is sometimes the best--like letting go of control or letting go of my kids. Hard stuff! But God does everything betteer than I!
You would think we would get plenty of practice in life--but the concept is still difficult with each new challenge.
Best wishes, Donna. I pray your book touches many lives.

Thank you for all your comments! I sent out over 100 new brochures to area churches offering to speak on the subject of letting go. Have one set up on October 17 to 200 seniors.
That's great, Donna. You'll do great!
Thanks, Sue. It's my favorite talk to give and seems that all ages relate to it.
Thank you, Sue for making sure that we saw your great review of this book. The subject is one I have needed most of my life. Thank you, Donna for helping us with this Godly message.
