[The Stage is on Fire] is a page-turner in which, much like life, there are no easy answers and yet each step of the journey yields insight and hope. This work of heart must not be missed!

Katie Steedly’s first-person piece [The Unspeakable Gift] is a riveting retelling of her participation in a National Institutes of Health study that aided her quest to come to grips with her life of living with a rare genetic disorder. Her writing is superb.

I thank you … It is the authenticity of your “class notes”; and it is the delicacy and skill with which you present the nuances of classroom life and the actuality of your students’ and fellow teachers’ lives.

A Holiday Note of Thanks and Invitation
Dear Friends,
This has been quite a year for us all. I want to take a few moments before the New Year begins to take a deep breath and send love and gratitude to the Wide-Awakeness Project community.
The Wide-Awakeness Project has been busy this year. I began a weekly newsletter of daily posts, Weekly Wide-Awake. I started a Books Falling Club. I also continued my work on Gratitude Conversations.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you to those who read, share, and comment in the Wide-Awakeness Project community. For those who have yet to connect, please subscribe and explore wide-awakeness with us.
May your Holiday season be filled with health, peace, and joy. May 2021 be filled with more love than you can imagine.
Happy Holidays,
Katie
