Writer’s bio

T he pieces in this book represent slices and snapshots of my life and my mind. Epilepsy. Family. Loss. Homelessness. Hate. Absurdity. Anger. Isolation. Excitement. Fear. Joy. Depression. Regret. Recovery. Hope. Doubt. Belief. They are a reflection of times and feelings, of my outlook on the world as I see it, or as I saw it at the time of writing. Many are the manic outpourings of my mind, frantically typed whilst slipping in and out of seizures, post-ictal psychosis, and bouts of extreme rage brought on by a combination of my medication and my circumstances.

Those times were hard for many reasons, but I believe that pressure brings out the truth in a person. My truth is what lead me to write, and also what dragged me from where, and who I was when I started to write, to where and who I am now.
