FTC Full Disclosure – A copy of this book was sent to me by the author in hopes I would review it. However, receiving the complimentary copy did not influence my review. The thoughts are completely my own and given honestly and freely.
You may remember author Karen Helene Walker joined us earlier and talked about how their story came to be. Thanks for stopping by today. Have you ever feel like you had a voice guiding you?
I remember Karen talking about this book, a book she was driven to write. It sounds definitely up my alley.
ReplyDeleteSadly the voices which try and guide me are largely negative, and I do my best to shut them up.
Elephant's Child, my guiding voices were negative for most of my life as well. You can train yourself to hear the voice of Light. I promise.
DeleteHi Mason and Karen - it does sound a good read ... especially as it deals with Scotland and has some legends ... it's brilliant that Karen has been able to bring the story to life ... hearing those whispers on the wishing steps ... cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteI know Karen!
ReplyDeleteA voice doesn't guide me, but God's spirit does.
Alex, it's God/Goddess's voice speaking to me as well.
DeleteExcited for Karen!
ReplyDeleteI think a voice does try to speak to me sometimes, but I frequently don't listen to it! Glad that Karen did.
Elizabeth, our intuitive voices are there to help us, I think.
DeleteThe question of how we're guided to do what we do is fascinating, Mason. Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteYes, Margot, I think that's a sub-theme in my book - we're all guided in different ways and we need to respect that.
DeleteCongrats to Karen.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was a voice but it was just my cat. And shame she doesn't speak English because I didn't understand a word of it.

DeleteDiane, Hahaha

ReplyDeleteOooh, thanks Southpaw - me, too!!
DeleteLooks like a great book. I can't wait to read it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stephanie!
DeleteThat's a great idea for a book. This makes me think how entwined we are with others and the past.
ReplyDeleteThanks, T. Powell. Yes, I think we are connected to our past, our present, and our future.
DeleteOh my goodness, Mason, I just woke up (it's only 7 am here in New Mexico) I'm so sorry I'm late to the party. But thank you thank you thank you for these beautiful words about my book.
ReplyDeleteThe concept of the story sounds very cool. I hope a lot of people are buying Karen's book and being inspired by it.
