- Synopsis
- Words are powerful, and words matter to people. When words embody sense imagery, they conjure up visions in the imagination and affect us on a visceral level. When we embrace special words of our choosing to soothe or inspire us, they often function like a companion or a talisman. This book focuses on the act of reading word combinations found in poems and stories. It also highlights the act of writing creative pieces in response to these literary works and to a rich variety of other stimuli. This book is even more about how the acts of reading and writing personally meaningful words can act as springboards to growth and healing through the guidance and encouragement of a skilled helper.
