    About this ebook

    It's dark, it's funny, it's insane, it's tearful, it's warm, and it's cold. It's all things wrapped into one. Infamous poet and songwriter, Rob Redwine, takes you on a bit of a roller coaster ride of emotions and laughter in The Mind of a Wordsmith. His debut book of poetry and artwork that he and his children designed.
    The words provide a great deal of color to each poem, while each piece of artwork seems to be almost perfectly married to the story on the opposing page. Marriage and relationships are also a recurring theme in the book. The writing and the artwork both seem to mature as the book presses on into the later chapters. There's an underlying theme about struggling through a broken relationship (or multiple broken relationships) and subsequently healing from the hardship. As the writer seems to mend a broken heart over the course of the journey, the artwork matures alongside the musings and laments.
    The Mind of a Wordsmith is a very easy read. It's simplicity makes it complex. It's immaturity makes it carefree. It will make you laugh, cry, and think from page to page. It is a book for every season, every emotion, and everyone.
