''Women of Spirit'' details the candid and moving accounts of women who have beaten illness, faced racism and bereavement, and overcome a lack of empowerment. Each individual story acts as a guide, giving readers an insight into the tools of resilience used by the women in extremely difficult, often painful, situations. The challenge faced by women today is how to be truly one''s self in the face of oppression, particularly in an age where youth and beauty are often synonymous. ''Women of Spirit'' celebrates the achievements, rather than the appearance, of women who have lived and loved with determination and strength. This compelling anthology serves to encourage the reader to also strive for an emancipated and fulfilling life.

About Susie Mackie
A creative Piscean Susie has enjoyed a variety of occupations including being a PA cooking for diplomats in Berlin dried flower arranging founding Cover Story Furnishings (so that officers'' wives could cover their horrible nylon-clad G-plan furniture with lovely linen covers with curtains and cushions to match) interior design and photography. With the latter she finally found her passion and now enjoys combining her love of people with her love of creating `the image''. In 2008 at the age of fifty she graduated from Hereford College of Art with a First-Class BA (Hons) Degree in Photography. Susie lives in Cheltenham where she enjoys all it has to offer from friendship to fine food; and plenty of each! She intends her book `Women of Spirit'' to be the beginning of a movement towards the self-empowerment of women.
