Thank you to WOW! Women on Writing ,Penny Harrison, Ronald Chapman, and Artotems for today's post! Having loved the last book I read by this talented writer, I was excited to start this new novel and I was not disappointed. The story found in these pages is one of adventure and wonderment as the reader follows the trek of Wonder, a wise-beyond-his-year’s goat, as he discovers who he was meant to be. Not content with his simple life on the farm, this brave young kid lives up to his title and wonders if there is more for him to see. Along the way we meet Wonder’s supportive family, wise mentor, the cackling crow that becomes his guide, and more – both friends and foes alike. In Ronald’s writing, as I have grown to appreciate, we are transported to the fields, brooks, and mountains through wildly vivid imagery. As you travel with Wonder, you can almost hear the water rushing over the rocks in the stream and hear the call of the crow overhead. It is an escape in to the wilderne...

Thank you to WOW! Women on Writing , Alison Taylor, Ronald Chapman, and Artotems for today's post! At face value, My Name is Wonder: A Tale of Adventure by Ronald Chapman, was not the type of book I expected to enjoy. After all, the main characters are a goat and a crow. What could this book possibly mean to me? Surprisingly, I was really challenged to examine my own life while reading this profound spiritual fable. I am convinced that this novel was meant to land on my path. This is a coming of age tale of Wonder, the billy goat, as he learns to live the concepts of mindfulness and heartfulness. After a distressing experience with a bully, Wonder is introduced to the first of many mentors, the wise goat, Oren. This teacher begins to give Wonder greater purpose by showing him how to live in the present. These lessons include naming his emotions, letting emotions go, breathing, being still, and listening to his inner voice. Wonder takes these skills with him on two d...

Thank you to Cathy Kwilinski for today's review of: ”A Killer’s Grace” and thank you WOW! Women on Writing for allowing us this opportunity to participate in the book blog tour with Ronald Chapman. Review: Journalist Kevin Pitcairn’s journey begins with an unexpected letter from Daniel Davidson, a serial killer facing execution. Pitcairn suddenly finds himself considering ideas about guilt and redemption that the people around him, even his beloved girlfriend Maria Elena, find abhorrent. Readers of A Killer’s Grace just might find themselves embarking on a similar journey as they make their way through this book. Ronald Chapman has created a stunning and remarkable tale that challenges how we think about grace. Chapman keeps the story moving briskly. Pitcairn is a complex, sensitively drawn protagonist who is easy to love despite his flaws and weaknesses. He brings the reader along with him on an intense journey to meet the people who live in the ripples of Davidson’s crime...

Thank you to Alison Taylor for today's review of: ”A Killer’s Grace” and thank you WOW! Women on Writing for allowing us this opportunity to participate in the book blog tour with Ronald Chapman. Alison's Review: I was blown away by Ronald’s Chapman’s novel “A Killer’s Grace” for a multitude of reasons. Chapman’s style really connects to the reader on many levels including but not limited to: suspense, trauma, nature, relationships, and spirituality. I was immediately hooked from the time Kevin Patcairn (main character/journalist) received a letter from a convicted murderer. The criminal is begging to be understood rather than be labelled a “monster” for the horrific crimes he has committed. I’ve always been a sucker for crime stories and this one proves no different. It delves into the criminal psyche and tries to show a potential “reason” or “root cause” for the unacceptable behavior. As a special education teacher, I observe and work with a variety of behaviors, but ...

Thank you to Penny Harrison for today's review of: ”A Killer’s Grace” and thank you WOW! Women on Writing for allowing us this opportunity to participate in the book blog tour with Ronald Chapman. Review: While this may not have been my choice of genre in the past, “A Killer’s Grace” has provided me an eye-opening view into the lives and minds of the vibrant characters. Based on true events, the letter with which the story begins was written by a serial killer with a very serious request for help. Without giving too much away, the story follows a columnist’s personal psychological struggle with addiction and his past, as well as delving into the psyche of the death row inmate. The vistas described vividly throughout paint New Mexico beautifully. The characters are equally real and engaging, making the pages turn quickly. Pitcairn’s choice to pursue the story he knows is there, even against his editor’s better judgement, mirrors his determination to redeem his past choices and fai...

Thank you to Tara Forst for today's review of: ”A Killer’s Grace” and thank you WOW! Women on Writing for allowing us this opportunity to participate in the book blog tour with Ronald Chapman. Review: Tara writes: I really enjoyed reading “A killer’s Grace” and following Pitcairn on his cathartic journey of understanding and forgiveness. Spurred by a letter he received from a convicted serial killer, Pitcairn dives into an uncharted world of self discover. This book brings a new light to the cycle of violence and mental illness, while constantly challenges what we as a society believe to be true about innocence. I very much appreciated how realistic the characters were. Chapman does an exquisite job drawing the reader into the emotions of each character and while illustrating character flaws with imagery describing past hurts through actions and reactions instead of simply stating them. Each communication drawing you further into an understanding of each character's unique...
