Writer Julie Flanders is known for her passionate and haunting texts. With deceptively simple words, she guides readers through the mysteries of the familiar to a deeper understanding of life and love, death and loss, miracles of perception, and the magic of the ordinary. An award-winning songwriter, Flanders is the lyricist for the band, October Project, which she co-founded with composer Emil Adler, and which is still celebrated for its two groundbreaking albums recorded on Epic Records that have sold over 1/2 million copies worldwide. October Project's newest studio album is called The Ghost of Childhood. Flanders' songs with OP and other artists have been widely featured on TV and in film. She is considered an innovator in both the creation and marketing of independent music. Her choral work, The Book of Rounds: 21 Songs of Grace, was premiered by Chorus Austin and is available on Sounds True Records and with Hal Leonard Publishing. Flanders is also an acclaimed Achievement Expert and Success Coach, mentoring creative leaders and innovators in business, design and the arts. Her client list includes business visionaries, Academy Award winners, New York Times best-selling authors, and social influencers who are shaping the future now. “Julie Flanders work has been speaking to my heart for many years, often offering me the perfect phrase that makes me feel seen and understood. She knows the language of music and the music of language equally well. Treat yourself to her artistry!” - Martha Beck, author of Finding Your Own North Star, Steering by Starlight and Finding Your Way in a Wild New World “These poems have the supple shape and zest of poetry. Julie Flanders is a story-teller and a word-weaver, and in these pages she never forgets that poetry is song, nor does the enchanted reader.” - Cynthia Zarin, author of An Enlarge Heart: A Personal History and The Ada Poems “Julie Flanders is a songwriter whose poems float as if on a glass surface. Finely-tuned and shaped by rhyme and wordplay, Joyride feels set to a key of contemplative, almost confessional wanderings.” - Alexander Neubauer, author of Poetry in Person: Twenty-five Years of Conversation with America’s Poets “I am in love with Julie Flanders’ poetry and lyrics – infinitely deep words that spring directly from the soul of the universe.” - August Gold, author of The Prayer Chest and Multiply Your Blessings “Julie Flanders’ poetry speaks to one’s higher self. It’s art inspiring art. Tell me you don’t feel different after reading it. I dare you. Three cups of inspiration, one teaspoon of melancholy, a pinch of darkness, a pound of magic, and let marinate for a few hours. This collection has it all.” - Turney Duff, author of The Buy Side “Julie Flanders gets to the heart of things in Joyride: these poems are clear-eyed meditations and strong medicine, mediating between optimism and realism, age and youth, love and its lack.” - Wesley Stace, author of Wonderkid “To read Julie Flanders’ book is to look at your self, for you will be reflected in her words.” - David Howard, poet and editor of Takahe
