From my recent open letter to my estranged teenage daughters. From my secondary publication on Substack, Dear Two Daughters.

Please take a moment to click on the link below and give my letter a read, like, share, and comment. I'm working towards getting these letters out into the world and your support means the world to me.

This piece is titled 'Just another empty week' and it is very close and dear to my heart. In it, I highlight the ambivalent nature of the longterm and complex grief of parental alienation and domestic abuse. I also talk about how the weight of grief shifts over time.
