I found this great quote while looking for ways to publicize my new book online:
"I was reminded of the neatest thing about writing a book in the first place: the author’s obsession, developed over years and often nurtured in solitude, finally becomes a shared point of reference through which readers can look anew at some aspect of the world."
While interviewing the gardeners for my book last year, I felt that I had learned to see the world in new ways. My love for gardening grew. I better understood my place in nature. I am excited to share my views and those of my new gardening friends with others. I set out to write a book with a positive spin that showed the peace we can find when we connect with nature. I hope that I have accomplished that and will help others look anew at their gardens.
The Gardener's Soul by Melissa Mannon
The Gardener’s Soul: Nature's Path toward Inner Peace tells the stories of fourteen female gardeners who use their gardens as inspiration for their lives. They each view their gardening as a deeply personal, reverent, and creative experience that ties them closer to the natural world. The stories persuade readers to examine their own relationships with nature in order to encourage a greater appreciation for it. Available through Createspace and Amazon.com
