I have been thinking about you all day after reading your
 last 2 posts. I have been so moved by your 
words and your honestly and openness. I feel so passionately about being
 genuine and honest and real. I am so happy for you and for us readers 
that you wrote and shared your feelings.
I recently spoke in my women's
 circle about some difficult feelings, and even though it was a very 
safe space I still felt so exposed and vulnerable and unsure afterwards.
 I was happy I had spoken but still! I didn't immediately find 
reassurance but my husband said that by saying it out loud in front of 
others that it was a big step in being less self- judgemental 
 Then I saw your post about being honest 
about motherhood and ourselves and I feel so 
incredibly grateful to have the great good fortune to have found you! 
You have influence my life by your writings quietly for a few years but 
very loudly over the past year. I love love love Moods of Motherhood and
 your blog. We have set up a women's circle thanks to you and been 
inspired by your links. 
Your honestly, 
openness, genuineness, just straight up this is who I am is SO GREAT!!! 
It is so what I find valuable and important and the only real way to be. We
 are constantly discovering new aspects of ourselves some easy to accept
 others harder. But to accept who we are and stand with that  before all
 is SO beautiful and so important and valuable ... OH I can't find the 
words!!!!!... but can  you feel what I am trying to say to you. THANK 
YOU and WELL DONE and this IS what life is all about. Being, living 
sharing who we are. I am inspired and in awe of you.

 Lucy! Let me thank you. You don't know it but your words have healed me
 time and time again. In reading your blogs I feel a primitive and 
primal femininity, a honouring of womankind. I am so grateful to you! I 
just wanted to send you this to remind you of the soulful, vibrant 
wombyn you are.

Lucy, what you are doing is a great 
service for women. Your book joins the momentum of changing the 
paradigms and shifting what will come. Thank you for growing this 
consciousness as I see that our futures will be anchored with Red Tents 
for decades to come because we co-created a world where women honor 
themselves. For our daughters and their mothers, thank you. 
Many blessings, 
ALisa Starkweather,  founder of the Red Tent Temple  Movement
Lucy is a true leader of Women. She 
inspires and opens our minds to new alternatives and is always one step 
ahead of everyone else; always overflowing with ideas that guide us back
 to our core self.
Lucy has taught me creative writing 
and yoga, organised and facilitated my Mother Blessing, welcomed me into
 the wonderful bosom of her Women’s Group, guided me in meditation, 
opened my eyes to the power of a Woman, helped me prepare for birth with
 Birthing From Within, inspired me to have two home births and given me 
invaluable advice during my journey across motherhood.
Lucy is an old soul who just knows. 
She has wisdom and guidance beyond her years. I am in awe of her energy 
to write in such a beautiful and insightful way, and her incessant drive
 to keep producing such ground-breaking and deliciously soul-warming 
material.

Most impressed with 'Dreaming Aloud', I love both the concept and the design: it reaches out, gently takes you in for a hug and whispers in your ear!

 I feel like I have sooo much to thank you for even 
though I have never met you!! I want you to know you have helped me so 
much over the last few months :) I get so much from reading your blog, 
and from there I found out about the wonderful Leonie Dawon (and her 
lovely life planner) and from her I found out about the amazing Tracy 
Lee Jones and her Feminine business model and from there I found so many
 other wonderful women doing incredible things and resources that are 
really helping me. So I just wanted to say a big thank you for heading 
me in the right direction.

I recently purchased Moon Time and I feel that I need to thank you personally.Thank you so much for writing this book. For spreading your wisdom. For helping women acknowledge and access their power.
I'm really enjoying reading through your blogs and all 
of the sites that you recommend. You are doing such important work, 
Lucy. I'll be recommending you to my mama friends.
Thank you again for so openly sharing your wisdom. You have gifted me 
with the tools to bring back my womanly magic that was misplaced for far
 too long.
Yours in gratitude,
K
I thought I was just having a chat with another Mum who happened to be a writer, about this mad idea I had about publishing meditations I had written when I was pregnant. Surely to just have a laugh and chat about it would do no harm! I mean, I was talking to a writer, I wasn’t a writer - just a Mum.
After meeting Lucy I got in contact with Create Space and Amazon KDP and am currently in the process of having an e-book published in the coming weeks with the intention of having it available in print in the coming  months.
I am grateful to Lucy for giving me a nudge in the right direction and encouraging me to move forward and believing that I could do it!

  "I contacted Lucy because I needed advice on ghostwriting and 
self-publishing, having attempted neither in the past. I chose her 
because of her successes in self-publishing, and because I trusted her 
judgement and opinions. I was not mistaken, and found Lucy to be 
wonderfully generous with her time, experience and ideas. She gave me 
insights into issues that I had not even thought of, whilst also looking 
for the best ways to protect my interests."
Nicky Sullivan,  freelance writer, and soon-to-be ghostwriter.
