Gillie Bolton has worked in reflective and therapeutic writing for personal and professional development for twenty-five years, and has written and edited five books, one of which is now in its third edition. A grandmother of three, she lives in Bloomsbury, London, and Hope Valley, Derbyshire.
Keeping a creative journal; inspirations for setting off; what is an image?; the power of autobiography, story and poetry; writing in a group; dreams of the royal road; writing for decision-making; writing to ease the pain of trauma; writing in the hospice, hospital and GP surgery; writing in old people's homes and prisons; the healing power of reading the poetry of others.
The book is eminently practical. It provides a wide range of valuable suggestions for working with clients, with groups, and for working on one's own. It is also clearly written…I would highly recommend this book as being useful, accessible and above all, written with compassion.
