Book ~ "Succulent Wild Woman" (1997) SARK

From Amazon ~ SARK, an author, artist, and incest survivor with many years of therapy and self-healing behind her, wishes to shine her "beacon of hope to the world" as she encourages and inspires women of all ages to become "succulent." She defines this as transcending past pains and feeling the freedom of full self-expression. Very candidly she shares the tragic, the glorious, the intimate, and the adventurous in her life, dispensing sage advice and a lengthy menu of readily doable suggestions for arousing creativity and nurturing self-discovery.

From www.planetSARK.com ~ This book is my glowing invitation to you -- to live a rich, succulent life! I explore love, sexuality, romance, money, fat, fear and creativity. It's a little bit like reading my diary -- with permission. Succulence is powerFull! and so are we as women.

It is indeed like reading SARK's diary ... it's her honest thoughts and ramblings in her handwriting (printing?) along with doodles.

I first read this book in the summer of 2001 and enjoyed it. It's a fun reminder that we should figure out who we are and love ourselves, surround ourselves with friends and be creative.
I believe that these circles of women around us weave invisible nets of love that carry us when we're weak and sing with us when we're strong.

  1. Thanks for reminding me I read this book back in the day. It is so hard to think of every book I've ever read on Goodreads.
