Sheila Bailey McLaren

Sheila Bailey McLaren is not a figment of the imagination. She had the most profound effect on this author. She is very strong willed, funny, compassionate, and brave. Her faith is strong and her outlook on the world, unique. She often sees that which others fail to see. She is an avid reader, mostly regency romances (Georgette Heyer) and mystery suspense (Clive Cussler), for example.The author has been writing for three decades with never an impulse to publish. Now retired, she has the time. This is her first book. The words fall quietly upon a blank page, and they tell a story that is unlike what the author started out to say. It has always been that way. It's magical! She does not change it.If you can look upon a sunset sinking into the sea and see ultimate beauty, if you love the rustle of leaves under your feet and the wind talking to the trees, you are one with her.Her grandchildren leave her speechless. They are priceless!From a heart of gold, which has been battered and bruised, rises in beauty a spirit still intact and forever positive. She believes always in the power of love and the power of self.Truth will always be the strongest tool she has. It's her reality. It is her strength.
