I started at Hive 4 or so years ago, hoping to share these stories with the world. Over time I decided that I could share essays at Hive instead and that they'd invite more engagement, and engagement is what I love about Hive so I adapted. It doesn't make these stories any less important or central to what I am here to express though.While "Self Help for Trolls" is the name I give to all my non-fiction (essays, vlogs, blogs), "I+ Everything" is the name for my fictional and abstract work. I make music and tell stories under this name. Confessions of the Damaged started as a series of short stories that were semi-autobiographical. Once I learned that it wasn't necessarily my own stories that I wanted to tell, and that it was more about the feelings and inspiration encoded into certain experiences that I really hoped to share with the world, the stories started to take a more fictional turn. Two settings and set of characters started to differentiate themselves and so what was originally a collection of random stories, slowly become two very concrete narratives.

You can also find the book via your favorite digital book store Confessions of the Damaged
