The January 2014 issue of Foliate Oak Literary Magazine is out. It’s a beautiful issue in general…but specifically, it features my essay “She Had Known Me Forever” in the Creative Nonfiction section. This essay is my most emotionally profound to date, as I discuss the emotional aftermath of my sister’s murder…and how that loss ultimately connected me with my best friend. Through the darkness, there is always light. I hope that you will enjoy and respect my vulnerability, as I share another delicate part of my story.
Love,
Michele

Thank you so much for reading and for your continued support Sloan. 🙂
As painful as it was you told your story well. Your feeling of lost, confusion and pain came out. It must have been hard for a young girl to understand and cope with the lost of a sibling so violently. My heart goes out to you.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read and to comment. 🙂
Got to support each other. so you’re quite welcome.
