yWrite with Angela Grout

Comments

How long does a book have to be to be complete? The truth is whatever you need to tell the story. Author Jimmy Egan shares how coped with losing his 2 1/2 year old daughter in his book LIFE GOES ON in 64 pages. Jimmy Egan is at a remote location with yWrite Host Angela Grout. The Springfield Cultural Program sponsored this episode of yWrite which was held at the Intersection in Springfield MA. With a live studio audience, Jimmy Egan and Angela discuss how this book started and how his experience as an Investigative Agent sharpened his writing skills so he could write authentically to share his story. As a grieving father, Jimmy had to do the unthinkable, allow life to go on. Learn how writing LIFE GOES ON heals him daily and allows him permission to talk about his daughter, remember her, and honor her. He is proud supporter of Shriners Hospital for Children and because of what they did for his daughter Brooke, he also became a representative for Organ Donation as a Life Choice Donor. Becoming an author isn't always a planned mission. Jimmy shares how this unfolded for him, and why sharing his story has helped others. Writing about grief and living with it is all part of the journey for him, and many. Perhaps you have a story to share too?
