    Author

    Sherree A. Felstead

    Sherree A. Felstead began her career in corporate communications more than twenty years ago. She has worked for global companies and three levels of government in Canada, helping senior management and employees orchestrate and write internal and external communications. She has also produced and directed award winning presentations. Since leaving the corporate world in 2009, Sherree has worked as a ghostwriter, partnering with first-time authors to write their inspirational books, personal stories, and web content. Passion to Paper is a reflection of her own personal journey as a writer, meditation practitioner, and teacher for those wanting to write about their passions for the first time. “I’ve approached this book from the standpoint that writing is an internal journey into one’s own nature. The craft has a way of bringing up aspects of ourselves that we don’t often pay attention to or even notice, because most of us focus on the external. With writing we are mostly alone with it, and that can be overwhelming. “I want to show people that yes, it’s not easy, but they are not alone. Most of the great writers felt the same way, but persevered. To persevere is to awaken a beautiful and noble virtue.”
