My non-fiction book, Along Came A Gardener, has been percolating in my mind since the late 1970s. Part memoir and part self-help woven with stories from the world of mental health, It will launch on March 15, 2025.
And you can get the first two chapters FREE when you sign up for my newsletter.
“An inspirational book based on the thoughts and ideas the author Diana Stevan gleaned from her 25 years as a family therapist combined with those she found in her garden. Recognizing that life is challenging, Stevan shows the many ways we can improve our lives, even when the future looks grim. She not only explores the nature of loving relationships but also the lessons Nature provides whether it’s in our back yards or in the forests.”
Yes, I started writing it on a manual typewriter back when I thought I knew a lot. Here’s a blog post from 2016 that shows what I planned to write. I’m happy I waited until my senior years to write it. So much has transpired since the idea first came to my head.
We are all in this wonderful life together, but there are times when we all need help. I’m hoping Along Came A Gardener will give readers both hope and inspiration to carry on despite what they’re dealing with.
