About the Book

Every person has a story This we know is true When listening to other's issues You think, OMG, me too! My story isn't my own It's a journey many share We've all suffered heartache of some kind Leaving us alone in our despair. My reason for sharing my pages In a mere chapter in the book of me Is to convey there is hope beyond the darkness You just have to have faith in order to see. Bent Not Broken took seven years to write Though a book wasn't my intention I needed to share my thoughts For my own intervention. I would love to watch as you read See the expression on your face That you too have encountered the same feelings In another time and place. I'm hoping you connect Realize it is OK to feel down But don't dwell on the past Or in the negativity, you'll surely drown. Try to find a positive In each and every day Or fake it till you make it And believe if there's a will there's a way.
About the Author: Kathy Downing Melillo was born and raised in Providence RI, and now resides in Cranston with her daughters Allie and Abbie. She is a graduate of Rhode Island college with a degree in elementary education, and currently teachers 4th grade in her hometown. Her writing career actually began by mistake. During her senior year at Lasalle Academy, she took a religion class, Christian service. Her placement was at Project Insight, where members of the sightless community were given jobs. It was there that she met "Bob", someone she knew as a fellow RIPTA bus rider in Silver Lake where she grew up. Little did she know that this "insight" would open her eyes to a world of emotion that existed deep in the corners of her mind. She had always been painfully quiet, shy, and a non risk taker. The journal entries she was required to make for her service became not only insight into into Bob's sightless world, but to her own as well. She learned that when she felt, she could write. It took years to perfect her craft through her journeys that fed her heart, mind, and soul, the craft that brought about Bent Not Broken.
