I took a few selfies on my phone. I have been working at my alma mater Mercer since January 2016. I was unable to work and go to school with the difficult mental illness I have. It was really hard. I have poems in four poetry anthologies. I got three blogger award nominations. I wrote a memoir but I need to revise it. I have done some things I’m really proud of and I’m still seeing opportunities come my way. I remind myself that I’m okay and I have a good life despite my illness. I even had a poem published on schizophreniapoetry.com on this website.
