In 2004, Grace released her nonfiction book: A Dream Is a Wish the Heart Makes: OR if at first you don't succeed, change the rules. The first half of the book is Grace's engaging and moving personal narrative of struggles and hardships; her difficult childhood and later battles with illness; concluding with clear advice to help readers find peace and God in their lives. Although it's written from a Christian perspective, it is easily understood from a secular point of view as well. The second half of the book consists of 40 pages of exercises on overcoming obstacles and getting out of your own way in order to find peace and happiness. Read More Read Less
