I am writing a book on Recovery from Suicide of a loved one, based on my own experience of losing a son. This book is giving me all or most of what I need to write it. It is truly excellent! Very comprehensive, direct, and easy to follow. I recommend it to anyone who wants to write a Self-help or How to book.I bought 5 books at Amazon including this one, which once I started it is guiding me, step by step. Now the job of writing this book, I have wanted to write for years, is made easy. I consider Jean Marie Stine my personal tutor and I am very grateful to her.I trust that when my book is ready it will be sold here, will be very successful, and that it will help many, many people in their hour of need, to come back from the depth of despair and grief to gradually be able to smile again and create a new life.
