Inside of Me 2.0 - Warren Shellie R.

Twenty years ago, I wrote a book about my life. Something that Inside of Me and its sequel, Inside of Me 2.0 (and yes, there is a pun intended with that), have in common is when I sat down to write them, I wasn't exactly sure what was going to come out; I was going to tell my story, which only I can authentically do, and we would see how things would go. As far as Inside of Me goes, it ended up being, what I call, my "sexual autobiography". That's because, back then, sex and relationships consumed a lot of my life. Now, 20 years later, I realize that this offering is more about...how and why I ended up making so many of the decisions that I did once upon a time. And why so much is different now. Better too.

Don't get me wrong: this book is still just as raw, candid and "oh well" as the first book was. Only now, I'm connecting some dots to give me an overall picture that has brought me to a place of real peace and full resolve...on so many levels.

Now, I will give you a heads up that just like Inside of Me was a bit jarring for some, Inside of Me 2.0 follows suit on a somewhat grander scale. That's actually why I decided to forego the traditional route (a popular publisher, someone to write the foreword, others to review it, etc.). This is me, with no need for anyone's validation or approval. I was 29 when I wrote my first book and 49 and 50 when I wrote this one. Things are different because...they're supposed to be.

So, if you read Inside of Me and you've always been curious about what happened to me since then or you've never heard of me before and you're wondering if I always write like I talk, check the book out. From family and friendships to spiritual conclusions and plenty of ah-ha moments along the way, in less than 200 pages, I will share where and who I am now...and why I love it so much...here.
