The author reminds us that we're in this together, writing, `We will hang old wounds upon distant stars whose light can absorb their weight.'" -Laura Grace Weldon, Author, Portals and Blackbirds, 2019 Ohio Poet of the Year
"Embodying dugnad and abbondanza. Living like an open tap. Binding up the bruised heart. Reclaiming the clarinet in the attic. Enduring a hard freeze in the garden. Coping with the long wait, the bad news. Laughing at the purple beet pie. Signing your name to a bright red coat ... Welcome to Staying Power, a tutorial in how to get through just about anything. Welcome to the warm humor of a singular writer, and raise your voice with her to celebrate `the smallness of what I know, the value of what you know, the vastness of what we can know together, and the existence of what we can't know at all.'" -Kim Langley, Author, Send My Roots Rain: A Companion on the Grief Journey
"`Deep peace' is the author's signature sign-off. She means it! Each chapter of Staying Power invites us to dig deeper where deep peace resides, surfacing in the healthy behaviors of kindness, compassion and nonviolence, even (especially) in a pandemic." -Carl Kline, Co-founder, Satyagraha Institute
