About the Book Held is nothing short of a small treasure. Held is a small collection of poetry and photography that is the product of someone with a simple, yet creative and full spirituality. The poems are essentially entries into Becky’s journal – her prayers. These poems give a very personal and transparent look into the soul of an everyday woman dealing with the everyday challenges of being a wife, mother, employee, and world citizen. They have grown from the typical struggles that come with life: adjusting to being a mother, dealing with change and loss, faith and forgiveness, and living life in modern culture. The poetry inside is not of the lofty and pretentious type that is unapproachable unless you have a literary degree. On the contrary, the poems are real and honest and can appeal to anyone – even those who say they don’t like or “get” poetry. They communicate simple truths in ways that penetrate deep into the heart. When you read them, you have the sense that someone has finally understood what you’ve been feeling but didn’t know how to express. As a bonus, some of the poems are accompanied by black and white photographs on the opposing page – serving as a visual counterpart to the poems. They are photographs of simple, yet beautiful moments that capture the imagination and evoke a sense of reflection and wonder. Held is a small book but a book that can be picked up over and over again like a trusted companion. It’s the kind of book you leave on your bedside table and pick up from time to time when you need to express emotion you can’t find the words to vocalize. But perhaps the real gift of Held is that it provides a subtle reassurance that you are not alone in your struggles and that there is always someone ready to listen.

About the Author Becky Sears is a native Kentuckian. She is a wife and mother and a full time medical professional. Photography has been a long time passion and hobby of hers, but writing has only begun in the last few years. Becky writes as a means to deal with problems, pray through struggles, or search for answers to life’s many questions. Some writings flow out easily, other times months go by when there is nothing to say. Somehow it seems that writing these struggles or hopes on paper make them more manageable and help her form a more spiritual connection with God. Family, friendships, loss, change, and today’s hectic culture inspire Becky and she hopes that by sharing her personal struggles and lessons that others can find comfort and hope as well.
