It was no easy feat to survive childhood being raised by a diagnosed sociopath father and a mentally-ill mother - especially for a child that leads from her heart. When she turned eighteen, her father called her an "old loser" and told her to leave home. On her own, this adult-child navigates the world with an innate sense of her "oldness" in search of meaning. The writer travels from the Rust Belt to the West Coast to Turkey trying to not only save herself, but the animals and bad men that she attracts along the way.
