Emily's Letters (eBook, ePUB)

An Adventure of Discovery and Healing

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Imagine if you could have one more conversation with friends and lovers now gone from this earth. One 'I love you', one rift healed, one cup of tea shared-or even a whole bottle of wine. Emily's spirit friends fill her dreams with sweet and bittersweet memories, blithe observations, and fierce debates, while reality works hard to keep Emily pinned to the stone and sand of Prince Edward Island's coast.

Despite coping with personal losses and career uncertainties, Emily is determined to transform her life when, like a little tornado, an attractive young musician blows into her life. Fortunately, in Emily's Letters, the dead have as much to say as the living and do their best to keep her out of the whirlwind that is Luke. They help her tell her story with an open and generous heart in language that is sometimes quirky, sometimes salty, occasionally raw, and undeniably human.

On a magical Island cradled in the waves of Atlantic Canada, Emily discovers the rhythms of compassion, healing and belonging, and is finally able to let go of her obsession with an impossible love.

Or is she?

Autorenporträt

Vicki grew up in many small towns throughout Atlantic Canada, as her father, a multi-talented professional, had restless wandering ways. She had a good mother, also a multi-talented professional, who taught her to adapt to change. Music was always a big part of Reddin family life and continues to provide inspiration and comfort for her creative adventures. Curious about the dark and light corners of the mind, Vicki earned her degree in psychology from University of Prince Edward Island, where she was introduced to the concepts of Eros, the life force, and Thanatos, the death wish. Her life experiences have given her much opportunity to think about both. Now she explores the light and the dark in her writing, while finding the humour along the way. Some favorite childhood books have nagged at her to write all of her life. They include "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn", "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter", and "Apple Tree Lean Down". Her favourite humourist would be the inimitable British novelist Sue Townsend. Contemporary authors whose work she admires include JoJo Moyes, Miriam Toews and Donna Morrissey. Vicki resides in Rustico, a beautiful coastal community on the North Shore of Prince Edward Island. Having raised several businesses (some successfully, some not so) and three lovely daughters (all successfully) with her husband Sonny, Vicki is now free to follow her passion for writing. Vicki is currently working on her autobiographical book "C is for Cancer, C is for Caregiver".
