Thank you for your continued support of The Way: Through a Field of Stars. (Newsletter 2, March 2, 2020)
A note from the author,
I was inspired to write The Way: Through a Field of Stars at Castrojeriz (Spain). When first I saw the city, I thought, My God, someone has to write a book about this place! Little did I know I was going to be that someone. Stepping into Castrojerez took me to a different time and place. There were echos of the Knights Templar running through the entire city.
In the evening at the Albergue (Pilgrims Shelter), the Hospitalero told me that there used to be five Templar commanderies in the city and that the entire hill was hallowed out with tunnels that stored the Templars treasure. He told me many great things about the Templars and their significance to pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago. As we were finishing, he lowered his voice and said, “There is a code of the Knights Templar on the Camino de Santiago, hidden in plain sight. Find it if you can.”
The next morning I woke up with the Hopitalaros words still in my head. As I was leaving the town, I did something segnifigant that has changed my life. I took my dance shoes from my backpack and left them at a second-hand store. I said to the world, “I will trade these in for a Story.” This may not seem like such a big deal, but for those of you who know me, you know that I have been a professional dancer for the past twenty years. This was a symbolic jesture of stepping into a new time in my life.
Every day after I made that declaration, the people I met and the experiences I had, came together to form The Way: Through a Field of Stars.
My goal is to sell 5,000 copies of The Way: Through a Field of Stars, this would make the novel a New York Times Best Seller. To achieve this goal, we will run a Kickstarter from April 8th – May 8th then process all of the presells on the same day! You can help us by liking our FaceBook Page, Sharing our Facebook Posts, and sending your friends to our website www.throughafieldofstars.com to join our mailing list and receive a free copy of the prologue. I know together we can achieve great things and inspire millions to take the adventure of a lifetime. Thank you so much for your support.
With love and Gratitude,
