I am very passionate about this book and this issue. Rape is serious and it happens more than people realize. It happened to my second base man from high school and it ended with her committing suicide. This is when the issue really hit me hard. When I heard what had happened I literally went up to my dorm room...sat on the end of my bed...and cried.
The world stopped moving. I was crushed. My world could not stop forever tho. I had commitments and places to be. Within 30 minutes of finding out what had just happened...I was supposed to be meeting with my "family group"...a small group bible study that I was leading that night! I broke down in the hallway. I don't usually cry in front of people so they knew it was serious. That night is kind of a blur for me...but I think I still lead the bible study...with the help of my girls in the group of course! I didn't get thru that night on my own. I thought about not going to Family Group...but now I am glad I went. It was the best place for me to be.
I decided to write a book. A book that would show rape victims that there is life after rape. That there is hope. The book is going to be rape victims sharing their stories of rape and restoration. Stories for rape victims written by rape victims.
