PRAISE FOR ALONE SUCKS
Jeff Goins
We don’t do our best work—or live our best lives—alone. Timothy Eldred beautifully illustrates this in his latest book, Alone Sucks, painting a picture of what a whole life looks like and why it involves more than us sitting by ourselves. Don’t miss this important work at just the right time!
Mark OestreicHER
Loneliness is one of those rare ailments that defiantly objects to publicity. Bringing it into the light with honesty and unvarnished vulnerability is the first hammer-whack on its ceramic frailty. Through his own story of acute isolation, Tim Eldred names the squiggly things under the rock, carrying the hope of light into dark places.
