I am simply amazed that this little book has been a tool for so many people. I am told that it has reached the eyes and ears of local, state and federal government agencies, and consequently laws are being changed as we speak.
I am grateful that since I wrote this book, it is still holding the #3 spot in its category on Amazon.com as of this date, 10/30/2007. This tells me the movement for the subjects of this book is still gaining momentum, and that is what the book was written for.
In one review, Charlotte Hardwick, a brilliant author who wrote "Winning Your Child Custody War," called me a social detective. I am indebted to you Charlotte for showing me where my strengths are--strengths I did not realize I had. Be sure to look for other titles by this gifted author as she cuts to the chase and tells it like it is.
I did not suffer the traumas of the people I wrote about, but as I listened to their stories I cried right along with them at times. I realized they needed a voice; needed to be heard. "Remember Cynthia Rose" has helped give them that voice. They are making tremendous strides in their movement, and grandparents are becoming a force to be reckoned with.
I will tell you that I do indeed intend to write the rest of the books in the series, but for now, because the first one was so emotionally and mentally exhausting, I need a break. Please stay tuned.
