Will Hoover Collections

  

I was fortunate enough to receive an email from Will Hoover in 2014. Not only was I elated, but I sat in total amazement as I read his various emails in which he told me his fascinating stories!! It was the first time I felt like I was sitting around an old campfire in the wilderness & being taught by an old shaman. Magical. And treasured in my memory for eternity.  As if these emails weren't already a moment in time in which I'd love to remain-Will sent me some things via US Postal Service.

Sent to me from 'the man...

3 page letter filled with little 'goodies'...I am not worthy.

Please don't break!!

I can't even believe this man is so good to me...from the magic box that started it ALL!!

Never knew this existed!! Not only am I STILL not worthy-but I am blown away by Will's talent!!!

This looks just like the book I bought, EXCEPT....

This one has a message from the gentleman himself. I can never convey how utterly grateful I am...

I can't imagine how anyone could ever sell anything they received from Mr. Hoover. But lucky for me-they did!
