The book focuses on transitions - those moments when life changes - pivotal times when fate and feelings blend to transform ordinary events into life-changing transitions.

The preface to A Star in My Hand:           
When laughter strikes a heart, a beautiful tone sings to another’s soul. When tears fall, the pain, the grief, travels its journey, bowing the heads of all it encounters. Our words, our worlds connect. And for a brief time, my story becomes yours and yours mine. The words transport the reader perhaps to a place within, or to a secret wish kept through time. A small reminder of a cherished memory, or of the defining second which changed a life. 

We will be talking to author, Diana Elarde about the book and about her experiences which let to the book.
