Story
Claire was a creative force, channelling energy into music, poetry, performance and writing. She has a number of books published already. However, she only wrote one novel. Entitled "I, a Child", Claire's novel was a symbolic culmination of a lifetime of creative writing and philosophical thinking. Claire spent the last few years of her life crafting and honing her novel, but sadly it was never published. As part of her legacy we are raising funds to publish it and give it the audience it deserves.
We intend to send a copy of "I, a Child" to each contributor to this campaign once it is published.
