Join us for a great meet & greet event with author Erika!
Hope is the Color of the Sun: A Poet Scrapbooks Her Way Back to Courage is an atypical scrapbook of creative non-fiction and poetry that captures the writer's journey back to hope and light after walking through the grief of losing her mother. The atypical scrapbook is a collection of writings in which the writing is like a scrapbook picture and the poet “captioned” each writing
with when it was written and the inspiration for the writing.
“For anyone who walks through the depths of grief, this collection is a bright light full of humor and grace. When I say " consumed this book in a morning";, I mean that it fed my soul like a holiday meal
surrounded by my favorite people. Full of laughter, love and memories of her mom, Erika guides her readers through the emotions of grief and hope.” -Stephanie S.
