Story Behind The Book
Entangled in Darkness is about bringing awareness and understanding to mental illness. At its heart, it is really about the struggle of a person, of a family, of friends and loved ones, in the face of mental illness, bipolar disorder, depression, suicide, self-injury, hospitalization, etc. I hope people can read it and find some sort of empathy or understanding for those struggling with mental illness. This story may be fictional, but it is a story that reflects reality for so many that struggle with mental illness. I wrote this for so many people and this story comes out of so many stories of real life people, real life faces, real life hearts and families and loved ones, survivors and people that didn't make it through the darkness. This story encompasses so much. More than anything else, I wrote it for my sister that struggled with depression as a teenager and didn't survive. This book is for her.
