Not a question?... but just finished your memoir and wanted to tell you how much it meant to me. I grew up in a religious commune, too, and your story touched me in a really deep way. I hope you write more, Ruth, and that you found as much healing in writing your story as I did in reading it.

Ruth Wariner Hello Hannah,
I'm so glad you found healing in reading my memoir. There were so many memories that were hard to revisit and write. I often had to step away from the page and take long breaks. Ultimately, though, I found tremendous relief and healing in writing and sharing my story. I'm happy it found its way to you, and I'm thankful that it touched you so deeply.
Thank you for your kind words.
Ruth
