The Books


Each Love Letters book contains 50 letters that J. A. Busfield has written to express love and appreciation for actual people in her life from 2002 – 2011.

Her letters started off dreamy and hopeful as they often do for young lovers; as life became more complex, she took the opportunity to record moments of choosing love – all kinds of it – so that she could be reminded of Love’s brilliance even in the hard times; and so she could express her feelings of love and appreciation for those engaged in enriching her life


Love Letters, Volume 1: Moving On, Growing Up

Based on the real-life journey of a woman who wanted to grab every opportunity to express love and appreciation for the people who added value to her life: family, friends, lovers…no one is excluded. This collection of love letters helps us realize that many different people help shape the course of our life; and we should treasure every person, every moment that brings us to this exact spot within our development. Face your love!

The Love Letters collection has inspired the Love and Appreciation movement, encouraging each person to acknowledge the special people in their lives by writing their own love letter. It isn’t hard and doesn’t require eloquence, only sincerity.

Love Letters, Volume 2: Being Adult

The Love and Appreciation Movement, inspired by the Love Letters series, continues forward encompassing a new category: tribulation. Life isn’t perfect, neither is love. Our experiences are multi-faceted and perfect only because of their imperfections. Love Letters, Volume 2: Being Adult explores the idea of love with a deeper, more complex analysis. Each letter expresses love – as it is, raging with honesty.

The author continues her journey detailing a commitment to a. love herself and b. love others.

She transforms her passion into the kinds of words that grab hearts and inspire change. Her perspective challenges each person to acknowledge the love that resides in their heart; and share it with the understanding that shared-love will ripple outward, like lake water disturbed by a pebble.
