My name is Joan McMillan and this blog is, as Emily Dickinson says, "my letter to the world." I am currently working on a nonfiction book about the murder of a young woman, Asha Veil, born Joanna Dragunowicz, and her unborn daughter, Anina, on September 9, 2006. My book is meant to honor her life and illuminate the need to create a safer world for women and children.

mystic
I went to the Felton Cemetery today, to reflect a little on the book. It is very green now, a gentle, restful place, not at all morbid. But it is the place also where Asha was assaulted and I felt like I must bring something, maybe some rose quartz dust, to leave in this place, to honor her bravery.
