Can a Fiction Book Help Your Mental Health?

<p>If circumstance gave you power and purpose, what would you do? My name is Chris Schallert, and writing helped me to overcome my incredible shyness by helping me to create a character named Cadence Colo. </p> <p>His story is in my book Mathers Odds. I started the book with the question, “If I had the power to overcome my limits, and if the object of my affection was even inclined toward me, would this be different?”</p> <p>The power that Candence gave me to help me overcome my mental health challenges was incredible. Now I hope the readers will enjoy the story and find power in their fictional writing to help the world. </p> <p>Blog post: https://www.apriltribegiauque.com/post/can-a-fiction-book-help-your-mental-health </p>
