Words of Readers -
Author & poet Jean Hull Herman says, “Sylvia Hoehns Wright demonstrates on the pages of “A Path Worn Smooth” the importance of a woman pondering her life in all its phases, from the beginning experienced to the future desired. She roots her comments and commentaries in her Quaker past; she knows where she is in the present (no small feat in our world of minute-to-minute changes); she faces the prospects of the future with the calm strength of a realist. She examines and celebrates her past, draws strength from what she has learned. The magic: so can the reader! As a poet, publisher of a poetry magazine for 22 years, essayist, novelist, and teacher, I can say “I wish I’d written this!”
“Wright’s writing is thrilling, to tell the truth. She really nails it. I’ve laughed and loved her articles and columns. Her words remind me why I love to work in the earth in the first place.” ---Gigi Amateau, author of the acclaimed young adult novel Claiming Georgia Tate
"Because I was an abandoned child I know very little about what my heritage might be--still Wright's book enforced my desire to--- in my lifetime--- start a Smooth Path for my children and grandchildren. Thanks for sharing wise words" Mary Louise of NY
"Sylvia's understanding and compassion for the every day ordinary, makes her writing extraordinary!" Author, Speaker & Beauty Industry Expert Susie Galvez www.SusieGalvez.com "Girlfriend We Gotta Talk!" radio show
