I have always dreamed about being a writer a little over a year ago, I took that dream seriously. I have found that writing has become a kind of therapy for me. I am healing the scars of my past.

I decided to write a memoir of one aspect of my healing- being gay from a conservative Christian family and background, and trying to reconcile my faith with my identity.

I didn’t realize how healing this process would be, but I am growing so much because of it. I am taking my future readers on the journey with me.

I don’t have all the answers or everything figured out right now, but hopefully by the end of this book, I will have a much better understanding of myself, and about God.

I am doing this not only for my benefit, but also to hopefully help others who are struggling with similar issues. This blog is my passion as well, and I hope to help others through the various topics I write about.

My healing from trauma, my struggles with mental health, my eating disorder, and various creative processes, such as poetry and short stories.

I am diagnosed with a number of different mental health issues, including a condition called Dissociative Identity Disorder which means I have more than one personalities, who also write different types of poetry and stories.

But each part desires for others to resonate with them, and for others to not feel so alone in their own healing.

I know I desire to help others like myself, and the different parts of me do, too. I have benefited so much therapeutically from writing. I am not in this to make money. I only desire to help others not feel so alone.

I spend many hours a day writing in various forms. This is my passion in life. I believe this is what I have been destined to do. If you are not subscribed to my blog, I hope you will consider it, especially if you resonate with any of these struggles. Be apart of my healing journey, and maybe you will find some healing in your own life.
