Synopsis "The Re-Words: A Philosophical Novel About the art of Reinvention"
“I wanted to change. Though not unhappy or depressed, I found myself unfulfilled. With a self-imposed examination, I realized that many of my behaviors, many of my current life choices were based on a foundation of ideological bricks that I established long ago, when I was in a much different place both emotionally and physically. Because I completely changed my life, and unable to find a program that addressed the kind of reinvention I wanted, I devised and documented my own plan. This is my account detailing what I did to replace my core beliefs and systematic responses that I brought with me through the years, with brand new fundamental views and reactions. This book holds the keys to how I unlocked the new me.” ~ Author Ella Jane Sandwell Bright and uplifting with a powerfully honest undercurrent, The Re-Words is a personal story, depicting what one woman did to confront old habits and ideas and replace them with refreshed and revamped notions. The subtitle, a philosophical novel about the art of reinvention, reflects her approach, taking into account basic self-knowledge, seeking new realities, and then bringing her abstract ideas forward for use in daily life. Proving that the act of personal reinvention truly is an art, Sandwell takes the reader along with her, using twelve words that begin with RE, and allowing the definitions to spur creative ideas and her imagination. “I have never read anything like this. Sandwell opens up her life and asks the question we all should be asking ourselves - why are we making adult decisions based on ideas and platitudes from when we were in our teens?” Janice Wainright – Nashville, Tennessee “I like that Ella Jane gives us credit for knowing the basics. Instead of a ‘how-to’ book she has penned a thought provoking novel about her own reinvention. I’m in!” Rhonda P. – Jacksonville, Florida "When I read the Soulless Series, I fell in love with Sandwell's writing. When she sent me a pre-release copy of The Re-Words I did not know what to expect because I knew it was not like her other books. I was not disappointed. This story was so powerful. It really made me think about my life and living in the now. Another great one, Ella! ~ Allison P. -New York, New York
