Robin Lynn BrooksRobin Lynn Brooks is an incest survivor. She is a published poet and playwright, and her art has traveled nationwide. She has a Masters in Sculpture from The School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. Her last body of work, Earth Mothers, is a seris of life-size and larger women made of earth. She is also a book designer. Robin's follow-up book for survivors, The Healing of the Lotus, is a collection of essays offering healing and guidance for the daily challenges of life after trauma. She is also working on several other healing books for survivors of childhood incest and abuse. The earth is vital to Robin, as are the elements of nature. She lives in western Massachusetts on an old farm that borders the state forest. It was here that she found her first mothering-in the earth. The white pines behind her house shelter her. The Lake in the woods is her temple. This was the place of nurturance that gave her the support to heal and to create this book. Robin is available for very select speaking engagements, including teaching/healing talks & readings, keynotes, and workshops. For more information, please visit www.bloomingofthelotus.com.
