Thank you, Dawn, not just for writing this amazing review, but for taking the time to read my book, which was published shortly after your book was released. Thank you also to this wonderful community and all of the other support and love I have received during this time. What a wonderful community of writers and readers we have!
Here’s what Dawn said about Francisco’s art:
Francisco Bravo Cabrera (Bodo Vespaciano) incorporated his love of jazz into his art, creating “Surreal-Expressionism.” He regularly features the contributions of women artists on his website, JazzArt en València. A poet and writer in his own right, he invented the Euro-Ku, a synthesis of European poetic forms and the Japanese haiku. Francisco kindly donated his artwork to Joni’s book. His illustrations accurately capture the fractured nature of women who endure horrific childhood emotional, psychological, physical, and sexual abuse. His prints can be purchased through Fine Art America.
To view more of Francisco’s art, please visit his website and you can purchase his work at Fine Art America. Have a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend!
Thank you for sharing, Joni, I appreciate it very much!

A very nice review, Joni, and so thoughtful. 😊 ❤
Dearest Timothy, thank you very much for reading. I have been so very blessed to have reviews from people who I have their books but still have not written their reviews. One of which is your book “The Valley Walker,” by T. W. Dittmer. We are actually reading your book together. But there are at least eight people’s book that are very deserving of reviews. I guess my time skills are not what they use to be. Between you and I Timothy, after living somewhere for 17 years (which being a child to a father in the service – I was constantly moving) has been difficult. Getting doctors in a rural area is not easy and we are still having to make three hour trips to get care. All of this was going on while I was trying to finish and promote the book. I still feel like I am so grateful the book, “My Goal for so Long,” was published but I am still recovering some what. I am grateful and blessed to still have any WordPress followers. I hope you are getting some better weather and can enjoy the sun. I appreciate your reading the extremely kind and well-written review. Sending blessings to you and yours for this Memorial Weekend, stay safe my friend. 🌹
Bless you, Joni. 🙌
Right back at you Timothy – enjoy your holiday, big hugs, Joni
Thank you so very much Joni and Scott. I am honoured and humbled and I appreciate your kind words with all my heart. I thank Dawn, very much and you Joni and Scott for sharing. Having been able to donate to this cause, to help those suffering, is a blessing.
You are most welcome – we feel so blessed to have such wonderful reviews and Dawn wrote such a heart-rendering and thorough review and we both loved what she said about the the vivid artwork which enhanced and blended the poetry so superbly . So grateful that many people like Dawn wrote reviews that came from the heart. Blessings to you both our friends.
Yes, so true Joni. All the best and many blessings
❤️🙏
Enjoyed the write-up.
