Sawyer Saint Andrews is the perfect dichotomy as a person and as a writer. She is one more time. Leaping into puddles seems to be a ’must.’ Sawyers style draws a reader in with her uncanny ability to connect on a spiritual, emotional, and personal level as if sitting with a best friend, however, her elusiveness and sometimes provocative nature makes one feel distant and unfamiliar. This constant pulling and pushing is the emotional roller coaster that makes her not only a captivating writer drawing you into her world, but also an extremely deep and curious person to know. Experience this through her writing and you will be amazed how you are challenged to test your own emotions. Sawyer hails from lands end where every three miles a body of water beckons. Without looking I am able to reveal this: Bob Segar, Steel Magnolias and Second Serenade are on her Ipod. (Suffice to say) rejoice in the fascination of polarity as you read the tell... Co-writer John Brodrick would surprise you with quick wit and subtle charm though ultimately impress you with his writing skill and ability to draw you into the tell. What brings John to extraordinary is the decision. The decision to share his mind with you, the reader. Why read work begotten of Brodrick? Because he brings your mind to his home, near the hearth and to adventure. To know him as a person is to know someone that always pushes the limit of life’s abundance to offer. Someone who always does what most only dream of and says what most would never think of saying. Come to know him through the tell. Find yourself lost, found and driven by this master of the tell and trust that he will indeed keep you riveted page for page.
