I have just publised my first book titled "From Those Death Left Behind". This book is in memory of my father who sadly took his own life on the 29th October 1990. This book contains poetry from both me and my mother portraying the emotions and pain we suffered as a result of my fathers death. In writing this book I am hoping to finally let go of all the pain and suffering I have felt over the last 15 years. It has been a struggle writing this book, poetry of this kind is so personal but I do hope that by sharing others can be helped.
The main objective to publishing this book is to help others who have suffered as I have. Suicide rates increase yearly and I hope that by reading my book people who have suicidal tendencies might seek help and prevent causing pain to their loved ones. The pain of suicide is one that stays with you for life, so many unanswered questions, the feelings of guilt, could I have done anything to stop this from happening?. Questions that will forever remain unanswered.
Secondly by publishing this book I hope to help raise money for the various bereavement and suicide prevention organisations throughout the world.
People who buy this book can also see where their money has been donated to by clicking on the donations page of my website www.amandawrites.com/donations.htm
This book can be purchased for $12.95 (hardcopy) or $7.50 (ebook) from Lulu.com. The link for this is http://www.lulu.com/content/120733.
If you purchase the book and have any comments I would love to hear them.
Many thanks,
Amanda
