Charred: A Survivor Speaks Her Truth to Inspire

by Andreena Leeanne - £7.99  Team Angelica Publishing (2020)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781916356122 | ISBN 10: 1916356125

"There is strong correlation between childhood trauma and mental health issues. I suffer with PTSD and depression, and use poetry to write honestly about the multitude of issues I have experienced in my 39 years. I have found writing to be hugely therapeutic. While I recognize the value of professional therapy, my poetry has helped me to come to terms with some of these issues.
 
If they're not already doing so, I hope to inspire the readers of this book to speak and write their truth. We don’t have to be qualified writers to write down how we feel – honesty is the only qualification for this kind of work – and we don’t have to share it unless we want to.
 
This collection is called Charred. Think of a piece of wood that has been exposed to the flames. You may think of it as damaged – and it’s true it has been burnt and blackened – but it is still resilient, and much stronger after going through this process.
 
Think of me as a piece of charred wood"
(Andreena Leeanne )
