EJ Thornton

EJ Thornton is dyslexic. She’s also an author, a publisher and even an editor. These careers and dyslexia may seem incompatible but actually EJ can tell much more descriptive stories, create more dynamic analogies and make more vivid points because she is dyslexic. She affirms Dr. Ronald Davis’ (The Gift of Dyslexia) view of dyslexia that it is merely visual thinking, as opposed to the majority of people who think verbally.

The word ‘not’ is not a visual word, and when EJ attempted to read early in life, she completely missed “seeing” this word. As she learned to read, she thought everything was phrased affirmatively, causing her much confusion. About the time the international symbol for ‘no’ came into favor, EJ was in the fourth grade. ‘Not’ became visual and suddenly this new form of the word could be seen. But to see it in her mind meant creating the scene described and then splashing the big red circle/slash through it. She wondered why anyone would create a scene just to nullify it.

Many spiritual teachings say simply, “God doesn’t understand the word NOT.” If you try to pray by listing all the things you do NOT want to have happen, those are the things that tend to happen. But if you pray only in the affirmative, then those good things must manifest in your life. Teachings like these (and many other life lessons) led EJ to the conclusion that “God is dyslexic” – that is God is a visual thinker too.

EJ decided to conduct an experiment on her own novel to see if the words ‘not’ and ‘no’ could really be done away with. So, she rewrote her novel Angel On Board. The major theme of the book centers around angels and an experience she had in 1993 during the pregnancy with her son. EJ reasoned that if anyone could speak in the affirmative all the time, it would be angels.

The experiment was a success and Angel On Board is being re-released claiming the title “The Most Positive Book Ever Written.” There was a huge bonus from this experience for EJ and that is the insights gleaned from the rewrite make excellent material for conversation, so she gets to go back on the speaking circuit with fascinating new subject matter as well as to promote the most positive book ever written. EJ hasn't always known that her angels were around her, but somehow she always knew she was protected. When some stunning events took place in her life, most people turned their backs on her, but she still felt peace. She still felt like she was being taken care of.

She began writing Angel On Board over 10 years ago when the characters involved in these events demanded the story be told. The book beat on the inside of her - until she let it out.

The book was inspired by real events and if you're looking for EJ in these pages, she's Jeannie!

When EJ was pregnant with her son, she felt an extra dimension of protection around her and her unborn child. The pregnancy was unexpected and the grandfather of the baby died just a couple of weeks before the baby was conceived. Even though they had never met, the connection EJ felt with the baby's grandfather was unlike anything she'd ever experienced before. Almost all of the human events in the book depict real events.

EJ is dyslexic and never aspired to be a writer, but this book wouldn't let her rest until she put it on paper. Angels definitely helped her author it and she has many, many stories to tell on that score.

Originally, this book was written to an audience of one, her alcoholic (now-ex) husband. He blamed his abuse of alcohol on his grief. She was certain that his angels didn't appreciate being held up as his excuse for his addiction. Luckily, God envisioned a much larger audience.

Quite unexpectedly, EJ started receiving letters from readers who had overcome incredible grief issues, just by reading the book. She holds these most precious letters close to her heart, for from these, she's realized the true audience for the book. It can be just a fun fiction read, but when it is in the hands of one who is grieving, it is truly an incredible comfort.

EJ wrote the book, but wants everyone to know that she couldn't have done it without her angels!

Now it's in your hands . . .

EJ's willing to bet that your angels put it there!
