Description

"... But Words Will Never Hurt Me" is a story of overcoming abuse. It's from the perspective of the author who goes through her marriage wondering why everything is falling to pieces. The stories are reconstructed from journal entries with exact words between the couple, their friends, and their counselors. Del endeavors to allow the readers to make up their minds on what is going on in this marriage. After all, you can't try to put words in the mouth of someone other than oneself or explain another's feelings. Because of that, Del only shows what she feels, how she reacts, and provides insight into how she's affected by this relationship. Her husband's actions and words are described as they actually happened. However, there is no attempt to portray what he might have felt. The story ends with hope for the future. And, that one who has suffered at the hands of an abuser who didn't hit with fists, but with words, attitudes, indifference, and silence, can indeed overcome. "...But Words Will Never Hurt Me: A Story of Overcoming Abuse" is accompanied by a workbook that walks the reader through the various types of abuse so others, too, may find their way to a healthier life. The workbook is sold separately. For more information, visit the website: www.freefromverbalabuse.net NOTE: The forum is no longer active (as mentioned in the book).
