Review
This is a strong novel about life, love ,and hope and really gives the tools needed to improve ones outlook on life and relationships.
I liked the way that this was set up, the writing style was well done and easy to follow. It is separated into sections that made sense and were each well thought out.
There were many lighthearted and comedic things thrown in that keeps this novel light and spirited. It also touches on the deeper issues that face many LGBTQ people and helps give hope and tools to deal with certain situations.
Born in Bronx, New York, and raised in Fresno, California, Christopher relocated to Hollywood, California, at age twenty-one, after being accepted into a Writers Guild of America, West, scholarship program for young writers.
Four months later, he was hired as Los Angeles Editor for Stage Door, Canada’s weekly entertainment trade weekly. Christopher went on to become a regular contributor to many of America’s most popular print publications, writing hundreds of entertainment and lifestyle features, interviews, and reviews.
He became a member of the Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle, and many of his stories were syndicated worldwide by the New York Times Syndication Corporation.
Christopher’s first book, Re-Creating Your Self was a national hardcover bestseller and he has subsequently co-authored three previous Meditation Journal books with Mary Sheldon.
He has also written three novels.
Mary Sheldon, the daughter of novelist Sidney Sheldon and actress Jorja Curtright, was educated at St. Clare’s Hall in Oxford and Yale University and graduated from Wellesley College with honors in English. She is the author of ten novels, including Halfway Home, Reflection, Pandora Brown, and Perhaps I’ll Dream of Darkness, for which she received a Brandeis literary award. Her nonfiction work includes the Meditation Trilogy, which she coauthored with metaphysical teacher Christopher Stone. In addition, she has written over a dozen children’s audio books including I Am America(featuring the voices of President and Mrs. Bush, President Nixon, President and Mrs. Ford, and Mrs. Carter, as well as numerous internationally renowned actors,) which won a Children’s Book Choice award, and Audrey Hepburn’s Enchanted Tales, which was honored with a Spoken Word Grammy Award.
