Fusaro "], "item_description" : "As I started putting together my poems for A Little More Time I wanted to make sure that I was being as authentic as I could without ending the book on a sad or hopeless note. I decided that the best way to do this was to start with only a few pieces from the years that I felt suicidal and gradually take pieces from my timeline leading up to 2013 when I first started to feel like myself again. One of the most important things that I figured out from writing the last 22 years is that I feel better when I leave off my journals with a positive message. Now, even on my worst days, even if I write 10 pages about how helpless, humiliated, and disgusted I may feel, I will make it a point to turn it around for the last few lines. When I end with pain, I felt pain. When I ended with hope, it left room for me to keep going. I felt a little more free. I felt a little more able to cope with my life and the world around me. There is a lot of truth to the saying We write our own story. I think that A Little More Time is where I first started to realize this. *****The three poems I have read spoke so directly to me it was almost scaryScary and awesomely amazing -Author & Artist Kamilah Simone, about Meanwhile on Earth; *****This collection of heartfelt poems provides hope for the lost, instills a sense of belonging in those who have fallen out of touch with loved ones, and most of all, reminds us that love always wins. - Jennifer Marshall (Creator of This Is My Brave) about A Little More Time; *****To have your words at my immediate disposal is one of the greatest tools...It is where I feel safe and comforted. - Writer and Singer Danielle Fiorello, on Joe's poetry books;", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/1/51/874/454/1518744540_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "12.99", "online_price" : "12.99", "our_price" : "12.99", "club_price" : "12.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
