    About this ebook

    The women you will meet in these four stories bring you into their similar yet uniquely individual troubled lives. Through ach woman, no matter how awful the obstacles are each show a glimmer of hope. This glimmer of hope is the difference between life and death. They are all strangers to one another yet all are battling these horrific demons alone. Some of the struggles faced are with depression, addiction, sexual abuse, eating disorder and mental hospitals. All struggle with suicidal thoughts and attempts. Often this is the breaking point where suicide seems as though the one and only way out for all four women in these stories. They all continue to hold onto hope for a better tomorrow, when the today's may be the end yet still seeking a way to break free of the pain and fear that trapped each of these women in self destructing prisons alone.

      ABOUT THIS COLLECTION

      These are the first initial fictional conceptions I had created after I was more or less finished writing day and night about my horrors as a drug addict

      The women you will meet in these stories bring you into their similar yet unique individual lives, all strangers to one another, and are all battling individual demons who want to destroy them. Some struggle with depression, some with dysfunctional patterns, and all struggle with suicidal thoughts and attempts.
