Synopsis:

"Patsy Moore's writing effectively emotes feelings so strong, opinions so sharp, and ideas so vivid that it is impossible not to consider her one of the foremost political and literary thinkers of her generation. Her sharp wit and emotional musings are thoughtful and sincere, coming from a heart that is always open." (Dwayne Johnson-Cochran, writer/film director/journalist); "Patsy shares so honestly her reflections about art, society and life, that reading this book left me with a deep knowledge of the workings of her mind and soul. And as a fellow artist reading the essay 'The Short Path to Purpose', I came to feel that I, too, am deeply known." (Linda Dessau, author, "Ten Ways to Thrive as a Creative Artist"); "I have admired Patsy's passion, spirit, incredible mind and gift as a storyteller, from the moment we met. Our first conversation began as an exchange surrounding the central story of a film, but wound up being about the collective story of humanity, our world, and finding a place in it. The words of this matter-of-fact woman, with eyes gentle and sincere, penetrated me; I was bearing witness to a special spirit--open, fearless, present. I invite you to experience that same authentic voice. What it has to offer is a gift to be treasured long after you have closed this book." (Shirley Jo Finney, stage director/actor/educator)
