(CreateSpace)

“Who Feels It Knows It” is about what I have been through with sexual abuse, domestic violence and much more. I came out a winner, a survivor – not without scars, but very much empowered.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write “Who Feels It Knows It”?

Colleen R Williams: The inspiration to write “Who Feels It Knows It” came when I heard what others were going through. I went through the same things. I escaped those things, so I felt like I had a story to tell.

JP: What sets “Who Feels It Knows It” apart from other books in the same genre?

CRW: “Who Feels It Knows It” is my story. Nothing is made up. I told it like it is, just how it happened and how I felt.

JP: As an author, what are the keys to your success that led to “Who Feels It Knows It” getting out to the public?

CRW: “Who Feels It Knows It” gets out to the public through Facebook and Twitter, mostly. So far, my promotional efforts have allowed the book’s FB page to jump to 179 likes in a week.

JP: As an author, what is your writing process? How long did it take you to start and finish “Who Feels It Knows It”?

CRW: It took a lot of years. I stopped because of painful memories. Obstacles got in the way. I had to relive it all over again.

JP: What’s next for Colleen R Williams?

CRW: Up next for me is a lot of things: interviews, telling and sharing my story, talking to women about what I have been through and how they can prevent it from happening to them.

  1. It’s not the easiest thing to bear all of your scars and traumas for the world to peruse. You open your life up to people in a way that allows some to browse and gossip.

    But the true power in books like Colleen’s and others like hers is the outreached hand of help it provides. It shows those who are truly in need of some solace that there are others out there who understand the pain and agony. This book is a positive example of a new direction.

    I commend Colleen for giving it as a gift to the world.

    I couldn’t have said it better myself. I totally agree with you. I have been pushing this book so hard because I feel it is such an important message that I need people to read it.
