Relationship advice to live by


Whatever you do, don’t self-publish a book on Amazon about your relationship failing or your extramarital obsession! 😂

I got a notification email that I sold a book today, but every time I sell a book, I wonder if the buyer is just some nosy person, on the outskirts of my life, that doesn’t like me, or is it some really cool stranger who is truly interested in reading a unique book! 

I think my novella, The Voices, is truly unique because it is voice-driven dialogue. When I started having an episode once, I started blogging all the horrible things that the voices were saying to me. They started telling me a story and it turned into a book. People with psychosis have a lot of eerie stories to tell. Psychosis stories are frightening! No one can tell a spooky story like someone suffering from psychosis. I find that writers block isn’t a huge issue either,  because, in the moment, we are truly inspired. I take my medication religiously and advocate for that, but I still find that there are always many stories to tell. Actual events combined with the hallucinations in any given psychotic episode are really stranger than any fictional story someone could write.

Destiny

life,

a series of

things that

probably

should have

killed me

but somehow

didn’t, and

here i am,

carried forth

by the inertia

of what has

been and

defiantly

riding the wave

into whatever

lies ahead,

destiny

my destination

Look

 If you want to know

How things might have

Turned out without schizophrenia,

Just take a look around.

To A Guy

it’s funny,

we’re in our

forties now,

the sights

and sounds

of a youth

well lived

now behind us

as i look ahead

to a future

of getting

older and all

that it entails,

together for

all time 

we will be 

in my mind
