Many of you followed Justine's weekly thoughts and know we intended to put it all into a book. Here it is! We are still working with a designer on the cover. Initially Justine and I thought to do everything ourselves, but cover design isn't exactly a skill either of us have. The one you see here is what we came up with, and both of us agree we need another! We particularly need help for the print wrap!!
If you haven't followed Justine's journey, all her posts are linked to in 'Justine's Journal' in the sidebar - feel free to browse :)
Blurb
Justine writes 500 words (or as near as), per week for
52 weeks, submitting her thoughts for anonymous posting, via her friend’s blog.
At the end of the year they decide to create a book, hoping Justine’s thoughts
will serve as inspiration to others.
Justine is real, although her real name doesn’t appear
in this book. She prefers the anonymity, for it is easier to share when no one
knows who you are.
Although believing a pattern will emerge from her
words, one of self-knowledge, possibly of inspiration, it starts as a shared experiment.
Initial doubts lead to a sense of excitement, as both writer and blogger feel
the message coming through.
This experiment and the results are shared here. Justine’s
Journal isn’t meant to teach the rules of feelings or behaviour. There are no
rules; everyone is different. This is simply one woman’s journey, a courageous
one.
Author’s Note: Justine asked me, her friend, to remain
as author of this book (although I only play the role of editor and reader), and
we agreed any proceeds will go to a charity of her choice.
