I have recently finished the manuscript for my first book and I am looking for a literary agent to represent me. This book is about my lived experiences through motherhood, lack of maternity care, and psychosis as an American living in the United States. Peppered within this memoir are critiques about how our society treats women, pregnant people, and mothers.

As far as I am aware, no other book like this exists in the world. I am the only one, so far, who has been brave enough to put these experiences into writing. By doing so, I hope that those who can relate feel less alone.

I believe that the world needs to know about these experiences. I believe that the hidden, the taboo, the things that mothers are shamed into silence for, need to be acknowledged on a national level. Representation matters, and the voices of mothers are sorely missing from our country's narrative. I hope that these beliefs are ones that you are willing to support.

Thank you for your consideration,
