As the obituary writer for the local paper in Haines, Alaska (population 2,400), Heather Lende has been in tune with the ebb and flow of life and death; but five years ago, she experienced it more personally when she was, quite literally, run over by a truck. Miraculously, she survived, and after the physical healing, Lende realized she needed emotional healing too. She turned to her neighbors and friends, and focusing on faith, spirituality, and life’s little pleasures Lende soon learned to forgive, to grow, and to rejoice.
Best-selling author of If You Lived Here I’d Know Your Name, Heather Lende has contributed to the Christian Science Monitor, NPR’s Morning Edition, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and Alaska magazine.
