| Dr.
Steele has taught literature and women’s studies
classes at USC and conducted writing and poetry workshops
throughout the Columbia area. Her expertise in healing
offers metaphors for psychic growth. She considers stories
medicine, whether written or read, to be powerful resources.
Responding to the story is the work of our daily lives.
Stories are embedded with instructions to guide us about
the complexities of life, both the joy and the pain.
Dr. Steele’s first book Moon
Days was a collaboration of authors
working together on a woman’s series on menstruation
stories. “We wanted to help our daughters, our
mothers, and ourselves deal with everyday feminine issues
without being afraid.”
Using writing as a way to heal has always fascinated
Cassie Premo Steele-- editor of Moon Days,
the author of We Heal from Memories
, and her latest book Ruins.
“Healing is more than the absence of disease,”
Dr. Steele reminded readers. “Awareness brings
us back to our true nature, to pay attention to little
things. I keep a continuous inner dialogue between nature
and me. It’s a way of slowing down to live life
fully.”
