From TEDx speaker, writer, and involuntary widow, Kelley Lynn, comes the real life story of love, loss, and what happens when your husband leaves for work one ordinary Wednesday and never comes home.In "My Husband Is Not a Rainbow," Lynn gives you a front row seat into the grief tsunami (please don't call it a 'journey') that busted through her young and happy marriage, shattering her world to pieces, and stealing the only life she knew. This brutally raw and often hilarious peek into one woman's brave struggle in the aftermath of her husband's death, and the beautiful love between them that started it all, will have you laughing, crying, and re-thinking everything you thought you knew about life, love, grief, and loss. Written in real time and told through poetry, journal entries, Facebook posts, grief-counseling session snippets, and letters to her dead husband, "Rainbow" will have you falling in love with love, while simultaneously feeling validated in your own personal grief tsunami."My Husband Is Not a Rainbow" is for anyone who has ever felt lost, hopeless, and alone in times of grief. It is for anyone who has ever loved someone, and then had to figure out what life looked like without them here on earth. It is for anyone who has taken pain and turned it into purpose, and anyone courageous enough to keep on living, even while having the knowledge that people will keep on dying.
About the Author: Kelley Lynn is a writer, actor, speaker, comedian, and grief coach. This is her first book. Her TEDx talk, "When Someone You Love Dies, There Is No Such Thing as Moving On," can be found on YouTube and has currently been viewed over 200,000 times. Kelley hopes to keep speaking and writing about living life in color after loss and to keep offering her one-on-one "from grief-to-life" coaching sessions. She would also very much like to be offered a role on "This Is Us," since she is obsessed with that show and has a lot of unwanted but personal knowledge on the topic of grief.
