Book Overview
Over the last few years, writing has been my source of hope. I published my first book, 'The day I woke up', in May 2013, and now, I will be sharing some of the poetry and writing that really captures the spectrum of emotions I have been through over the last few years. My battle with being alone in the world, not knowing anyone; my battle with the memory of the rape; my battle with alcohol and self-harm, suicide, and depression; my hope in recovery, and my up and downhill journey. The title 'Each line is freedom' comes from the fact that even in the darkest of poems, the hardest of times, writing has been an amazing tool for me, and every word, every line, every poem is attributed to my recovery in some way.
