What would you say to the people who've influenced you, who've shaped who you are? August J. Pettigrew's new book full of inspirational letters to important figures in her own life encourages you to put pen to paper and tell them exactly what they mean to you

In short, she's long on the praise for a wide variety of people and groups who've made her the accomplished writer and retired public servant that she is today. And you can-and should-do the same thing if you have benefitted from the investment of time and energy others have put into you.
