Love Letters
Some books are quick but razor-sharp, and An Open Letter To Love Lost by pseudonym Charles Woodman fits that description.
Firstly, the idea that he writes the truth but hides it behind a pseudonym is very attractive and probably therapeutic. The book doesn’t feel like a storybook, it oozes real feelings. He is very skilled at putting down what matters without subtlety or crudeness.
What attracted me the most was how vividly I could identify with the situation. I’ve written before about toxic wives and broken promises and stuff that matter to me and how there is really no answers for life’s journey. How he travelled the road and screwed up the one thing that was important to him. And it is a man writing, not a woman – something we don’t see often enough.
Amazon reviews are favourable and I agree – please go read them if you have a minute. StacyLynne says I found myself often in tears as I felt the authors pain and loss, as I remembered my own and Susan Rudman says but somehow the personality contained in that body is just the one thing that is most unhealthy for us. Enjoy the book!

Posting articles to article directories is a good way to gain exposure. Even though writing content can be boring, it definitely is worth your time in which you spend writing. [Ed: ?]
