| Comments: | Hi Charlene, I hope that all is well. I don't know if I ever replied to your message. Chances are... I didn't, because I would have definitely remembered reading your profound writing. If not, charge the lack of response to my hurting heart. I've experienced tremendous death in my family in the past 8 months (6 people), and things have been... no words to describe the emotions. I think your writing is quite powerful. Thank you for your willingness to expose what people are truly dealing with. Even as I was reading the excerpts it made me wander back. That says a lot. Just keep asking God to keep His hand upon you in writing and always allow for Him to give you the words to write and you'll do well. God's best to you! Stephanie L. Jones www.stephanieljones.com |

| Comments: | I just read the excerpts from your book, Struggle to Fall in Love with Myself. I wanted to let you know that I really, really enjoyed reading what you had to say. It was great! I couldn't stop reading. Did those excerpts come directly out of your book? The reason I ask is because I'm an editor. I edit books like yours and I saw a number of places that could have used an editor's touch. A good book can be made greater when it looks and reads well without errors. And you have a good book. I just want you to get the best out of your editor because you're a great storyteller. Keep it up!! Alanna Boutin |

| Comments: | I just wanted to say thank you to so many of you who have called, posted your remarks and emailed me about your views of this draft. You have made me not regret the past 3 years it took to finish this book. I do welcome all feedback the positive and the negative. I also wanted to say that as difficult as it was to write this book it was just as hard to decide what to put on the website. I just wanted readers to very clear that this is a book about resolve, change, Christ, and self-empowerment. I couldn't write 237 pages of soft porn even if I tried. My only mission with this book is to empower women of all ages and races. I would love to write about the color of roses and violet's but how many would listen. Reality is not always pretty and my goal is to meet people where they are. Let the message be very clear, I am not trying to reach those who have already sprouted wings. Thank you all again and God bless. |
