About me:
ABOUT MY BOOK: This is a true story of growing up, breaking down, and coming to grips with a psychological disorder. When Samantha Schutz first left home for college, she was excited by the possibilities--freedom from parents, freedom from a boyfriend who was reckless with her affections, freedom from the person she was supposed to be. At first, she reveled in the independence--but as pressures increased, she began to suffer anxiety attacks that would leave her mentally shaken and physically incapacitated. Thus began a hard road of discovery and coping, powerfully rendered in this poetry memoir.

Who I'd like to meet:
people who want to read my book, someone who: smells good, can respect the healing properties of my couch, can watch marathons of good series television, eats nutella, rereads their favorite book annually, frequently laughs so hard they cry, snort, fart, or piss their pants, remembers their Garbage Pail Kids name (Soft Boiled Sam)...
