“This book is for anyone who has loved and lost an animal... Let me help you to find them again, through this story.”
Eli Gardner
At the end of July, Gracie's Way received a follow on Instagram from indie Author; Eli Gardner, and I decided to check out her profile (@abrakadabraink). When I discovered she had written a book which included discussion of the topic pet bereavement and that she uses her book sales to fund animal rescue, I immediately DM’d her to say thanks and then asked if she’d like to collaborate. I give some brief descriptions of Gracie’s Way, and I’m NOT Disordered and offered to put together a proper collaboration pitch if she was interested, but she actually agreed to the collaboration without me doing so! In our talks to determine exactly what shape the collaboration would take, Eli very kindly gifted me a personalised copy of the book as well as sending a lot more copies with the plan of running a giveaway on both I’m NOT Disordered and Gracie’s Way! For my favourite quote from the book and how i relate to it, check out the blog post over on www.imnotdisordered.co.uk... And now, the plan for this article – for Read A Book Day 2026 – is that there’s a Q&A with Eli and then guidance of entering the giveaway...
