About this ebook
AIready a legendary performer in the music industry, Jewel has been writing poetry, short stories, and prose since she was young. She's also a bestselling author, poet, and actress. Now this uniquely talented artist opens the pages of her most intimate journals to give readers, fans, and friends a glimpse of her magical, turbulent life.
Drawn from life on the road during her Spirit World Tour, Jewel captures unforgettable moments from her childhood in Alaska, her beginnings as a struggling artist, and her challenges as a daughter, sister, and woman. With acutely observed, eloquent depictions of the musicians, lovers, bikers, strangers, celebrities, and characters that inhabit her world -- and illustrated throughout with candid, never-before-seen photos of Jewel and her own photojournalism and drawings -- Chasing Down the Dawn is more than a collection of vignettes, observations, and stories. It is a finely wrought mosaic in prose and poetry, set to the rhythms of life.

One of the greatest singer songwriters of her generations sings her heart out using her wisdom through words and poetry. Jewel has all the potentials and skills to stay in the world of arts for much longer period of time than her contemporaries. She is destined to become world reknowned artist. A class of her own. She will shine brigther than her name.

Warm, like a summer rain leaves you with a steamy uprising when large drops hit hot pavement on a humid, stormy day...and you drenched in cold rain feel a crisp chill come on...refreshed & word bathed.
