Very cool experience, thanks for sharing. Your description “staggering out of the ballroom” because of the emotion in the room was great. I recognize Show Way, but have never read it. You have convinced to me to pick it up the next time.

Thanks for linking to this from your PPBF post! It is amazing to hear authors read their own books especially one with a story like this! I wish I could have been there!

Thanks Jennifer! This is one of my all-time favorite blog posts, even though it was written in my early blogging days.

This was a very moving post Julie. I’m so glad I read it today. I loved what you wrote,

“In that moment I learned that if you do not dig so deep into yourself that there is no meaningful differentiation between you and what you write, than you need to keep mining.”

I needed this, well said. Now, I have to go keep mining

Wonderful post, especially:

“In that moment, I knew I had just experienced the sublime alchemy that occurs when words resonate with you so deeply that they reorder the cells in your body, and BAM — you are no longer the same person.”

As an author, who could ask for more?

Wonderful post. Listening to an author read her own words must truly be an experience. I wish I had been there.
