### EMAIL 3: Value / "Why it Matters"
**Timing:** Week 3
**SUBJECT LINE:** The truth about the "Bend"
**PREVIEW TEXT:** Why I had to write this story.
**HEADER:** Behind the moss and the mystery.
**BODY:**
People keep asking me: *Is Cypress Bend a real place?*

The short answer is no. You won't find it on a map of the South. But the long answer? It’s real to anyone who has ever felt like they didn't quite fit into their hometown, or who realized as an adult that their parents were just flawed people doing their best.

I wrote *Cypress Bend* for the people who believe that change is possible, no matter how deep your roots are buried. It's about more than just a mystery; it’s about the courage it takes to confront the past so you can actually have a future.

If you’re looking for a read that stays with you long after the final page, I think you’ll find what you’re looking for here.
