Write in the Open

Love Is What's Left
When I Stop Auditioning for It

A non-fiction memoir in prose and poetry, in seven parts, organised by emotion rather than chronology.

It follows my own exploration of family, relationships, self-worth, and the search for love without having to earn it through performance.
