Testimonials for "Four Warnings: Shamanic Journeys"


Praise for "4 Warnings: Shamanic Journeys" : Winter  Ross blends lyrical prose and fairytale-like etchings with the passion of an environmentalist and  mystic. This  illustrated  chapbook of four visionary shamanic journeys is:

"A beautiful piece of work!  Very moving.  The illustrations couldn't have been better." -- Richard Lutman, prize-winning author of Crowsfield and creative writing instructor, Coastal Carolina University, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.


"You may pick up this beautiful, seemingly short, book casually. You will leave it being forever changed. Ms. Ross weaves a vision of our possible future as a species - indeed, as living creatures - which pulls at the heart and, hopefully, spurs us to action. Through her visionary travels with Bat, Orca Whale, Deer and Bear, she leads us on a journey encompassing the spiritual and physical realms which lie hidden within our psyches, to truths we know but don't know we know and sometimes wish we didn't.
If you have an inkling of the dangers we have imposed on our very existence on this home, our planet; if you have a heart which hears the steady drumbeat of destruction; if you want to cry out with all creatures, in compassion - pick up this beautiful and heartful book. You will find a companion here." --Bruce Nygren, Amazon customer, Boulder, Colorado


"Your book is beautiful and also frightening, suitable shaman material, creative and destructive forces alongside each other. Thank you for gifting us with these precious dream journeys." -- Ken Stanton, Foundation of Shamanic Studies workshop participant, Esalen Institute, Big Sur, California.

"Your book is wonderful!!! Inspirational..." -- Naomi Lake, Shamanic Healer, Crestone, Colorado

welcome

We all have several identities. Most of us are able to blend or separate them at will most of the time. This blog is my Writer identity. It engages - hopefully in a beautiful, interesting and officially "fictional" manner - with the Others. I think you will find yourself here also. Your comments, both constructively critical and wildly encouraging are appreciated.
