The contents written inside this book are a road map from my infancy in writing and transforming into maturity. I titled my book so as to give the reader the opportunity to seek their own definition. Better Felt by the Pen is a title that came to me from an interior place, which says let the pen speak for you and you can stay silent. Everything about this book will have more than one meaning from the cover art to the format to the title, which will give you the gumption to think outside of your own established comfort zones and social conformity. Enjoy.
