Weak Ink: Essays On a Journey from Tatters to Triumph

By C.R. Rodriguez

Weak Ink is a collection of essays and poetry that explore themes of childhood trauma, grief, motherhood, addiction, healing, and the seemingly eternal burdens we carry as children of damaged parents. This book is shared from the perspective of a child of two addicts who through healing and forgiveness, learned to release the extraordinary pain of unrequited parental love and become her most authentic self. - "Who would want to read your autobiography?" This book isn't a story. It isn't even really an autobiography in the sense that it doesn't have a true beginning and end. This book is a collection of lessons told through significant moments in my life. They're diary entries... And therapy sessions... And chicken scratch on the back of diner napkins. They're dark thoughts at 3am... And joyful dances in the sun. All of these little big moments got me to where and who I am today. I hope that by sharing them, I inspire someone to do the work of shining light on the darkest parts of their soul-and deciding to love those parts too.
