Something Different

I've tried for the past two decades to write down my story, and I've always tried to do it chronologically. I would get through 50 or so pages and then get stuck, trying to remember the exact pieces of the next part of the puzzle.

This never worked well because I always ended up stopping. Looking over my past work, I've started and stopped so many times and have the same thing written - but in a different style - throughout these documents that I realized it's never worked.

Finally I've decided to do something different.

Instead of start to finish, I'll write snippets. Small pieces of my story that I hope will be interesting, can be digested quickly, and might help someone else who is stuck in a cult, is in the process of escaping, or has already left and is trying to figure out what to do.

Hopefully this new format will be easier to write, read, and help me gather my thoughts and emotions as I take this journey down a past that should not be forgotten.
