i can start again: 25 blog picks from 2006

this taste of the first year blog by the same name, chronicles the author's journey through a year of hard endings. using the immediacy of the blog format, the author shares her stories of grief and longing, pain and possibility and, in essence, uses the form to write herself back alive. this book is an inspiration for others going through grief to try their hand at the page. the overarching story is one of a daughter's love for father, whom she will only get to know as a character in the fiction she writes about the man she loved, but never really knew.
