✨ Big News!
Missing Pieces has been named a Winner in the NYC Big Book Award® for New Nonfiction: First Time Published.

This memoir began as my attempt to reclaim my voice after surviving the 1977 FALN terrorist bombing in NYC. To see it recognized nationally is incredibly meaningful — not just for me, but for every trauma survivor who has ever felt invisible.

Thank you for walking this journey with me. 💛

Congratulations to our wonderful presenter

even though Eeyore had depression...

his friends never left him out

they never expected him to be happy while adventuring

but they loved Eeyore for who he was and never left him behind.

people who have depression still want to be included in life; it may just take a bit of creativity and understanding ❤️
