Breaking the back of my inbox
Time seems so speeded up — another Christmas already! Sometimes I can't believe how quick things are going. Don't feel I've done enough these past twelve months to mark off another year just yet. I'm here though, hopefully putting the peices of my life back together again. What I'm not doing so well with at the moment, is with emails — in replying to them.
I thought I was more or less ontop of things, but last week I found a folder I had moved lots of emails into. Lovely emails in response to the book. I separated them out, intending to reply to them later that week, only I somehow forgot all about it. So I am now playing catch-up with myself — trying to reply to all those that were in that folder, as well as the ones that have come in since. That might take a while... so for now I just wanted to say thank you so much for reading the book and for taking the time to get in touch. I really have appreciated all the kind thoughts and the sharing parts of your own stories, about you or others close to you — some of who never made it.
I'll never forget that this time the year before last, I was almost one of them...
For that I feel so very grateful.
...Thank you.

i have just finished reading your book. i am only 15 and i sat there in tears to know that you got through all that, not only from what you went through with your uncle but from living in a car. i was extremely shocked at how anybody could do that. i hope you get back on your feet as i am sure you are almost there. We all have faith in you... you made it!!
Dear you i read the article in readers digest and found it very moving.So visited your blogspot the things you have gone through life are really tough so hats off for your courage and will.i live in Pakistan world apart and lived a very happy family life never had such a bad experience so it gives me a very different perspective about life. Although we are on different places but i feel connected to your problem.Wish i could solve some of your problems.So the first step is to be your friend.So take care and goodbye Friend
Dear Ms. Anya,
I just finished reading the readre's digest where your story was published. I was moved by the situations you've been through and how well you handled everyday of your life inside your car. I was then realized that people can never choose what would they have or where would they lead. You story emphasizes a strenght of a woman that despite of diffcult times still looking for ways to survive. Though, it was not easy still youstrive and here you are now. You are blessed and guided by our God. May you always have peace and happiness in your heart.
