Fictionally Nonfiction

About the Book

An everyday character in her story byline, Wynn grew up mistakenly believing her repression of memory was normal. When a series of events forever pivoted her view on everything, Wynn’s life imploded and forced her to battle her mind and average day-to-day life interactions. Her past, present and daunting idea of no future infests her thoughts. This memoir depicts the inner ramblings of a coming-of-age teen girl uniquely learning to seek a future alive.
