*depression* *hobby* *obsession* *profession*: the D-hop Series Diane Goodlett

*Depression* *Hobby* *Obsession* *Profession* is being published in memory of 21-year-old Lindsay Michelle Kendrick, whose life ended tragically and instantly in a car accident on the morning of December 5, 2005. The D-HOP Series was a work of love and a very strong passion for Lindsay. It is a compilation of poems she had written in journals, beginning when she was sixteen years of age. Her poetry is filled with intense and extreme feelings of love, the loss of love and her loved ones, pain, sorrow and, at times, despair. Some were about her experiences while others were written for friends and family members. Some were song lyrics she wrote and many were written in the the dramatic, extravagant style that we all knew was just "Lindsay".
