Sober Spirituality Day is here!
Today is the day! I finally get to celebrate my book birthday!
Before I say anything else: From the bottom of my heart, thank you. The support I’ve received from y’all comes only after God in my gratitude. I long hoped to write a book and now — I have!
On a personal note: When I was 10 years old, I won a writing contest. It’s one of my earliest memories of feeling special, like I had a gift. It instilled in me an identity as dear to me as woman, Christian, priest: writer. It fueled my pursuit of an English degree with a Creative Writing minor. My identity as writer is behind my deep love for Scripture and preaching.
From that day on, I have held out hope that I would one day write a book. Today marks the very tender experience of a childhood dream coming true, a book birthday that is — in a deep spiritual sense — how one beloved part of my identity is born into the world in a new way.
Again, thank you for cheering me on as I share this part of my soul and identity with the world.
With love & care,
EJW

leave a review!
If you’re enjoying Sober Spirituality, please consider leaving a review! If you purchased online, certainly leave a review on the website where you grabbed it. But did you know you can also leave a review on Amazon, regardless of if you got it there? I know feelings about Amazon are understandably conflicted, but positive rankings on Amazon can help writers.
At the end of the day, I don’t care where you post it — just please do me the honor of sharing your review wherever you like, as positive reviews are a huge support to me!
what people are saying about Sober Spirituality
I will be taking time throughout the week to thank everyone who has endorsed my book. These beloved first readers helped give me the courage I needed to release this labor of love! (And I will keep sharing words about the book as I receive them, so please share yours with me if you read it!)
I’ll be sending a few more emails this week — I can’t help it, this is a big deal! So stay tuned for info on upcoming events, interviews about the book, and more!
Yeah can’t wait to get my hands on it Erin 💜💜💜💜
Congratulations!!
