“Lifes That Way was an extraordinarily difficult book to write, because it wasnt written as a book. It was written as a journal of events that were happening as I wrote it, without the space or time either to digest or analyze those events and without the hindsight and peace that writing in the aftermath would have provided.” WayWritingBookDifficultSpaceWrittenEventsHappeningsJournalHindsightAftermath Author:Jim Beaver
“My wife Cecily Adams was dying of cancer, my daughter Madeline was struggling to overcome an autism diagnosis, and my father was dying, all at the same time. Writing the journal was a cathartic experience, and an extremely positive one.” WritingFatherStruggleWifeDyingDaughterOvercomingCancerMy WifeMy DaughterAutismJournalDiagnosisCatharticMadeline Author:Jim Beaver
