Hi Gracie,

Would you please do some corrections for me to help to get the publication of my memoir moving? Especially with respect to writing the query letter? I have a wonderfully polished, very effective query letter (in that it's gotten the book into the hands of agents and top shelf publishing houses) but I've come to realize that it focuses too much on the famous writers that I grew up with, and not enough on the fact that the book itself is about miraculous healing from childhood trauma and the gift of ongoing transformation, with the famous writers and that period of literary history really a backdrop or setting. I need to revise the query to make a shift in emphasis so that the agents reading it don't expect a book about the famous people, but rather a book about surviving, healing, and ultimately thriving -- with a deeply spiritual core to the narrative, set against an interesting literary-historical and cultural backdrop. And I'm having a really hard time imagining how to do that.

Thanks in advance, beautiful spirit.

And I am already celebrating with you in advance the way you effortlessly sail through your black belt test on friday

muah!
