An Influential Review
It is hard to believe, but my book, “You Are Always With Me”, will be published in less than two weeks! The book goes live on Amazon May 1 in both hardcover and paperback formats, and can be pre-ordered now.
Pre-sale copies of the book have gone out to my book launch team — military members, defense contractors, and others — and I have received an outpouring of kindness and support. To my astonishment, a leading Marriage and Family Therapist in Colorado, Dr. Katie Godfrey, reached out to me after learning of the upcoming publication, and offered her recommendation of the book. Check it out below!
“As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am well aware of the effects separation has on a family. Bonding and attachment are essential to healthy development. Long absences from a loved one is challenging, whether it is military or civilian deployments. “You Are Always With Me” is something tangible to read and hold, and will bring comfort and connection to those left at home. Children, in particular, do better with something material when there is going to be a separation and this book is perfect for that.
“This touching poem captures the nuances unique to deployed families. The gender-neutral illustrations are thoughtful and inviting and make this book applicable to many family formations.”
