Teresa LeYung-Ryan & Mary E. Knippel show writers how to polish their manuscripts before:

As author of Love Made of Heart:
November is:
- National Family Caregivers Month (books that help caregivers: Help Me Live: 20 Things People with Cancer Want You to Know by Lori Hope; You Want Me To Do What? Journaling for Care Givers by B. Lynn Goodwin; Nothing Can Scare Me Now: Managing Breast Cancer So It Doesn’t Manage You by Juliane Cortino)

You can sneak preview the 2 exercises for Day 1 of my workbook on Amazon.com Thank you, Maxine, Rita, Ginger, for being heroes!)
- National Lifewriting Month (“The Chinese word for ‘love’ is made up of many brush strokes. In the center of the word ‘love’ is the word ‘heart.’ Love is made of heart… The word ‘heart’ is also in ‘virtue,’ ‘grace,’ ‘compassion,’ ‘ambition,’ patience,’ ‘loyalty, and ‘melancholy.’ Please write the stories that speak from your heart. If you need recommendations for “how to books” on writing, please click here.”)
“Reach out, not stress out, when pursuing your dreams!”
