A daily journal of inspiration, comfort and encouragement from the UK's No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Wild Hope, beautifully designed in four-colour throughout
Start every day with Donna Ashworth by your side in this beautiful, interactive daily journal. With uplifting poems, guiding words, wise insights, perspective shifts and understanding on every page, Donna will accompany you throughout the year to help you embrace life in all its messy wondrousness.
Donna also encourages you to explore your own words and writing to help you ride each wave this life sends your way, helping you find beauty and wonder on days the world scares you, comfort and patience when sadness is visiting, and courage and hope when you can't see the light. She also gently steers you back to love yourself, as you are, and to see that, no matter what you experience in this world, you are never alone.
Every day is a journey and it starts with you.

Some people have the Bible by their bed. Others a self-help manual. I have Donna Ashworth. * Susannah Constantine *

If there is a god Donna is doing her or his work. * Robbie Williams (Instagram) *
Donna's poems take the complicated and messy parts of our life and smooth them out like crumpled paper, each loving word releasing a crinkle until we are unclenched. I feel seen, from the inside out. * Andrea McLean *
Donna Ashworth is a Sunday Times bestselling author and the UK's no.1 bestselling poet. She lives in the hills of Scotland with her husband, two sons, Brian and Dave (the dogs) and Sheldon (the cat). Donna started her social media accounts in 2018 in a bid to create a 'safe' social space for women to come together and connect, but her love of all things wordy quickly became the focus, and a past love for poetry was reignited. Seven books and nearly 1.8 million followers later, Donna is delighted daily with her mission to shower the world with words and bring poetry back into focus.
'I believe wholeheartedly in the power of opening a daily poetry page to better everyone's mental health and clear space within our minds. Poetry is permission to feel everything we as humans are absolutely supposed to, knowing we are not alone, never alone. Poetry is not folly for the fancy; it is using words to shift perspectives, heal wounds and let in light again. And it is something we can pass to one another when times become turbulent, as they so often will.
Donna's bestselling books include Wild Hope, I Wish I Knew, Love, Loss, Life and To the Women.
