"Whispers ~ The Often Subtle Sometimes Rowdy Voice Of Truth" is a little book with a big title, and even bigger stories. Stories told in a voice that might be sitting right next to you on your back yard deck, sipping wine and watching the moon rise. This is not a "how to" guide. It's a story book loaded with humor and wit, that nudges the reader to listen for their own intuitive Whispers. A refreshing change from the dull, often repetitious 'self-help' books that clutter so many shelves. With every story shared, the author reveals her passion for living life as joyfully as "rolling in the grass with a litter full of puppies". Her stories will make you laugh, (and maybe shed a tear or two), but in the end, you'll know what it means to listen for the Whispers of your own life.
Camille Olivia Strate was reared on the East Coast by a very large and boisterous Italian family. Shortly after high school, she left for places unknown, fueling the fires of curiosity and adventure. After traveling the U.S. for several years, she returned to University to study Psychology. It was there she discovered her passion for performing (music) and rekindled her love affair with words.
Her first book, "Whispers-The Often Subtle Sometimes Rowdy Voice of Truth" is the result of a life long yearning to understand the subtleties of human intuition. It is a collection of true stories that she lived over the course of her travels as she searched for the "truth" of who she was. Written in anecdotal style, her book offers the reader a refreshing, witty, often humorous, sometimes tearful look inside the heart of a "blossoming Being". Her style is as unusual as it is conversational. It feels as if you're sitting beside her, listening to her share her stories, as if you were the best of friends.
Ms. Strate currently resides in the sunny foothills of Southern California's Palomar Mountains, with her curly hero, Bruzer and a host of coyotes, horses, red tailed hawks and assorted other four-legged creatures. Her next book is due for publication early in 2012.
