William Smith, a Maine native, lives in Flagstaff, Arizona with his wonderful wife of 31 years. Hope Filled Recovery from Depression and Anxiety is the author's first book and is a heart felt effort to help fellow sufferers of depression and anxiety find hope and help with their disorders. Smith is interested in writing non-fiction, both humorous and serious, and is working on a book called Sayings of a Sunday School Teacher, a true and humorous look at his mother's outlook on life and the many irreverent sayings that ingratiated her into the lives of many. Look for future works as the author explores many new ideas and interests.
