New freedom beckons, So she reckons, Of life more simple and pleasant. Love, laughter, happy-sad ever after, Is the chapter she is after. ~ Through poetic verse, Amanda Crundall rediscovered her creative self, whilst balancing being a busy, single mum of two children and a pressured career as a full time, heart failure nurse specialist. Amanda's debut poetry collection shares the sense of hope, tenacity and compassion; her intention is to inspire others to write, for their own mental health and wellbeing.
