Alrighty, you guys, so I'm gonna share my first poem. And actually this is the poem that has gotten me into poetry, has gotten me into writing and helped me discover my love for writing. This was I submitted to this classic arts and writing competition and this actually got me my first national silver medal. I got a gold key as a regional award and then I got a national silver medal back in 2020. And so, yeah, I'm going to read it

Hi, my name is J. L. And your poem is it. It covers so many things from A to Z for survivors. And this is near and dear to me because I am a survivor of domestic violence and I work with other survivors of domestic violence, coaching them into creating evidencebased healing journey material for them. I actually meet with a group this upcoming Thursday tomorrow from Canada. It's the last session of our six part series on life after abuse

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much for for letting me know. I've been trying so hard to hyperlink my website so it would be easier for others to access.
