Home

I have lived a life of ridicule and mockery, never feeling beautiful or worthy of attention. Suddenly in an unexpected divorce, it pulls all my insecurities to the surface, and I spiral downward. I struggle with self-worth, mistakes from my past, and coming to terms with the end of a twenty-one year long, tumultuous and destructive marriage.


During my endeavor to rebuild, I am reunited with an old flame who opens my eyes to an intimacy I had never experienced. Unfortunately, Wallace Callaghan lives halfway across the country, living a carefree life where commitment is not part of his future plans. He has his son, his bike, and his motorcycle club; those are the only things worth getting attached to. Our worlds did not match, we could never make it work.


"Home" is a story of triumph over defeat, of finding love after abandonment, strength after abuse. Loosely based on my real experiences, I threw in a bit of whimsy to add a romantic flare during the darkest time of my life. It's a tale of never giving up, even when there is no hope in sight. Divorce isn't the end, it's a journey to discovering who you were always meant to be.
