Thanks to your web site and educational information, I am continuing to build my author’s platform. My first self-published book entitled, “Father, Forgive My Father” was published in October 2005. Since that time reviews have referred to it as “a roadmap to reclaiming your life” and “living that life to the fullest”. I am so encouraged to hear that it is helping people all across the country to heal from the ravages of child abuse. I am now reaching out through several of my web sites: MySpace, Facebook, ShoutLife, and Blogger, with the hope that I can reach many more victims so that they can “turn their scars into stars” and live a victorious life. Please help me to help them by passing on the word about this enlightening book that you won’t be able to put down.
