How to View The World With An Open Heart
Praise Quote
Viki King is a magician and she can stop time. You know the things that dart by you like hummingbird wings in mid-flight—well, she can hold them still, and let you see a raindrop before it splashes or take you to the exact moment when a memory happens.She has followed William Blake’s behest…
“To See a World in a Grain of Sand.
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower”And not only does she…
“Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour”In these short stories, she shows it all to you, sometimes in a single stroke.”

Description
Stunningly beautifully written. Poignant, Funny. You won’t look at life the same way after seeing it through the eyes of Viki King.
This is a master writer. Every word is tightly placed. So economical as if every word weighs something and she’s packing for a trip up to the summit. She carves out a world in a short paragraph. King is the ultimate observer with no judgment. Whomever she sees, whatever they are up to, she looks at them with love.
You’ll remember the feeling you’re left with after reading each story. The pay-off is immediate. Some of these stories are two lines, some just a paragraph and always a feel good take away. Read them in a minute, they will stay with you a long time.
