Leanne Hunt is a South African author who values honest communication and learning. She developed juvenile macular degeneration—a retinal eye disease—in her early teens and has made living with sight loss part of her life story. Her interest in personal growth drew her towards Christianity early on, and has led to study and research in the areas of counselling, spirituality, psychology and theology. Her hobbies include knitting, song writing, singing and reading. She is married with two grown-up daughters who live overseas.

I seem to remember that editors are not supposed to be included with book details, so unless you actually helped to author the book, you should not claim the title for your author profile. However, if you did help to author the books, the library group can help. Try out the suggestions in this article, https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/... .I hope you come right.(less)

Ken Robinson
“If you're not prepared to be wrong, you'll never come up with anything original.”
― Ken Robinson, The Element: How Finding Your Passion Changes Everything

Kay Redfield Jamison
“Others imply that they know what it is like to be depressed because they have gone through a divorce, lost a job, or broken up with someone. But these experiences carry with them feelings. Depression, instead, is flat, hollow, and unendurable. It is also tiresome. People cannot abide being around you when you are depressed. They might think that they ought to, and they might even try, but you know and they know that you are tedious beyond belief: you are irritable and paranoid and humorless and lifeless and critical and demanding and no reassurance is ever enough. You're frightened, and you're frightening, and you're "not at all like yourself but will be soon," but you know you won't.”
― Kay Redfield Jamison, An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness

M. Scott Peck
“Love is the will to extend one's self for the purpose of nurturing one's own or another's spiritual growth... Love is as love does. Love is an act of will -- namely, both an intention and an action. Will also implies choice. We do not have to love. We choose to love.”
― M. Scott Peck

Todd Henry
“No matter what you say about your priorities, where you spend money and your time will prove them out.”
― Todd Henry, The Accidental Creative: How to Be Brilliant at a Moment's Notice

Todd Henry
“The only two approaches to dealing with uncertainty are design and default. When you operate by default, your biology, which is wired for comfort, wins out and you almost always end up squarely in the gray zone.”
― Todd Henry, Die Empty: Unleash Your Best Work Every Day

Leanne Hunt I'm halfway through writing my new novel and to celebrate I'm giving away a free romance from my Kindle backlist:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/27...


Leanne Hunt I've posted a video on my GoodReads profile page about my novel "Jozi Gold", but it's also an insight into the themes I explore in fiction and my motivation for writing. Please take a look and share if it resonates with you.


Leanne Hunt Special announcement: My new book, "The Unravelling of Ingrid Steele" is free on Kindle till Friday 27 November. Get it now if you like women's fiction! http://www.amazon.com/dp/B018CCHJFQ


Leanne Hunt I'm happy to let you know that my new novel, Blind Walls Bleeding, is now out in ebook format through Amazon, Kobo, Nook, Ibooks and Scribd. Blind Walls Bleeding is the first book in a series entitled The Case Files of Cara Merton, Rehabilitation Specialist, and follows the gripping story of a therapist and her client who fall in love with the same man in a strange boarding-house in Johannesburg. It's an intriguing novel about sight and blindness, generosity and jealousy, reason and madness.
