A Note from the Author

Dear Reader,


My stories or 'snapshots' as I call them---have a particular voice all their own but you will certainly find yourself in many of them.

Pain, enduring, survival and most of all, love and hope...with a fair dash of fluff and whimsy in between.

Much like, if not exactly like, my very own life. Or yours.


Thank you for the love and support you continue to show me! The Burning Heart Diary is read worldwide and I am often surprised at just how far it reaches. Feel free to comment on how a piece touched you ( or didn't) or resonated with you. I will respond in kind.

As my life continues to unfold...so will these stories, these snapshots.

The stories of a Burning Heart.


Much Love and Best Wishes to all of You!


Catherine James Ellis "CJ Ellis"
