After revealing some arduous personal experiences 

to a female shaman at a fire ceremony designed for

her, Veronica received confirmation of her current

endeavor as a new author:

The healer responded compassionately, "Veronica

you could have committed suicide over this, killed

someone else, gone to prison, gone crazy, been

committed to a mental institution, become a

prostitute, taken drags or become alcoholic, even

ended up destitute on the streets. Instead, you did

it differently. That is to your credit. That is why 

you must share your story!"
