Praise for Grasping at Honesty

Each poem in this debut collection acts as an honest attempt to put words to the inner work required for an integrated life. The words worship the good and grieve the broken in rawness. Inspired by personal experience in trauma, disability, neurodivergence, chronic illness, and the everyday joys and aches of being human, these pages act as a siren call toward the common humanity within us all.
