Now imagine that you lose her. HOLD STILL follows the story of Caitlin Madison after her best friend's death. Though Caitlin embarks upon her junior year stunned and alone, the world soon begins to open up to her—through art, through love, through journal entries, through new friendships. Like Caitlin, we all have to overcome difficult events in life. HOLD STILL is about loss, but even more than that, it is about the self-discovery and new beginnings that arise from pain and struggle. I would love to hear your thoughts about HOLD STILL. Please visit my website, send me an email, or write me a letter.
