Ruth Wariner:
just have to say what an incredible woman you are and I thank you for sharing your story, that can't have been easy. Your siblings are fortunate. Will you be writing a sequel of how the heck you managed the rest of your journey?
Ruth Wariner
Hi Fran,
Yes. I definitely plan to write the next chapter of my life. I feel incredibly blessed to have had the time and opportunity to write and share the story of my early childhood, and I think the next part of my life is also an important one to tell. I'm grateful my siblings and I were able to stay together and are still close after everything we experienced in LeBaron. The life I live now was worth the time, the work and the hard choices I made to get here, for sure.
My editor and I worked on a Q and A for readers who have finished THE SOUND OF GRAVEL. Here is the link to that page on my website if you're interested in knowing more about what happened next: http://www.ruthwariner.com/for-readers/
Thank you for taking the time to read my memoir and for reaching out to me. I appreciate your kind words.

Thank you Ruth. For showing the world that those of us abused by family are not victims, but survivors. For showing the world that yes, there are adults out there who choose NOT to believe you For proving you had to fix the situation yourself. And finally, for proving not all survivors fall prey to drugs, mental illness and prostitution. WE are the strong ones. WE survived. And WE are happy. ??
