Such a blessed initiative, Amber. This reminds me of project The Neon programme, which I came across when doing my research for my EOY storytelling workshop. In short, reading other warriors' stories strengthens our collective resilience and improves our mental health. You can look up The Neon programme, it's essentially a collection of survivorship stories in chronic and mental illness struggles. As I'm also active in the autoimmunity space, they've got the display of autoimmunity artwork (US main) online, which you can see at autoimmunity org catalogue.
Can’t wait to look it up. If you have a link that would be even better. Hope you’ve had a lovely time over the holidays and got to enjoy the benefit of some holidays in any case💚🌹
Oh wow, there’s many incredible stories in there.thanks for sharing the link, it might inspire other readers to check all those recovery stories. Deeply inspiring and like you say, reading them strengthens our resilience and improves mental health 💜
I only read the ones that specifically stood out - there are many in there. Thinking of contacting them to see if they’d consider a piece from me - there’s an invitation to on there.
Thankyou for sharing my writing 💜 I will look forward to diving into the others you have shared.
It’s a powerful piece💜 how do you feel when you read back on your own writing?
Thanks for including my writing - the e-book is a powerful idea xx
It’s been a big year for our writing 🦋

I’ll check the stories out sometime soon but nowadays I’ve got other reading commitments.
