Author Biography
Lou Hamilton is a writer, artist, coach and award winning filmmaker. One day, sitting in her late grandmother's armchair, about 30 years after her last drawing class at art school, Lou felt motivated to pick up her pencil again. With her daughter about to leave school and head out into the big wide world, she wanted to create a series of little drawings and inspirational messages to help her feel fearless. As she drew, Lou created a character who was everything she wanted for herself, for her daughter, and for all those women, young and old, who are maybe too afraid to be all that they can be.
ReviewsWe can't get enough of this lovely little book here at NH. Through the hand-drawn character of Brave New Girl, we see that by using our creativity and our purpose we can lead a meaningful and happy life. The best thing about this inspiring creation is that you can dip into it for a pick-me-up whenever you're feeling low or lacking motivation to see what message she has to offer you. * NATURAL HEALTH *
