Collection of Poetry Delves Into Struggles with Mental Illness, Provides Hope
Green Lake, WI (PRWEB) August 4, 2006 -- Rose Weiss has created a new collection of poetry delving into her own struggles with mental illness in the book "Journey Through the Wilds," published in conjunction with Lulu, the world’s fastest growing provider of print-on-demand books.
"Journey Through the Wilds" is an honest open look into the life of the author as she walks the road of recovery. It takes you from the depths of depression and the anxieties of past traumas to hope, inspiration, and the joys of life.
Rose Weiss wrote "Journey Through the Wilds" to bring comfort and hope to others out there who also live with mental illness. She came to Lulu because she found Lulu’s print-on-demand tools to be fast, easy, and free.
“I hope that through my poetry others out there will find hope,” said Rose Weiss. “I know that sometimes I have felt so alone and like no one understands what I am feeling and going through. To know that someone else has felt that way too is a great comfort.”
About the author
Rose Weiss has been writing poetry for many years. One of her poems recently was a winner in a poetry contest sponsored by the local public library. This is her second book of poetry. The first, titled "Faith Can Light a Candle in the Dark," is also available through Lulu.

Poetry Audio Books You Can Listen To And Enjoy

Maybe it's the mood that puts you in, maybe it's the rhyme, or maybe you just do not know what it is but you love it. Audio books are just as popular as poetry nowadays. Well, maybe I exaggerated a bit; audio books may not just as popular as poetry but are getting more and more popular these days. Think about it, with all you have to do each and every day, when was the last time you read a poetry book, or a book at all, and what did you have to sacrifice to have time to read that book?
