I have been a part of an exciting ongoing five year process which has just come to fruition!
As many of you know, a large part of my own process in finding a way to believe in love again, included contacting a lover from thirty years past.
So when I heard back in 2007, that Kate Harper and Leon Marasco of Spruce Mountain Press in Vermont had decided to start a “Past Loves” Story Contest, I quickly wrote up my own story and sent it in. Kate and Leon say they were overwhelmed with their nationwide response!
Every year since then, they have continued to receive more past love stories, so many that they decided that they really should share them with others.
Fast forward to today. Their new book: Heartscapes: True Stories of Remembered Love just arrived at my door step yesterday!
Five years after their contest, you can now purchase your own copy of this amazing collection of true love stories, which included my own story under the sub-title: Resolution at Last. Mine is called: “Love and Hope.”
Kate and Leon selected the short stories which rang most true to share and remind us why past loves do matter.
Read these true stories for encouragement. I hope they help you find a renewed faith in love!
