The Sweetest Boy I Never Knew
Has your anxiety ever convinced you to reject someone you really wanted to be with? I’m not talking about some obvious asshole, who you’re attracted to but know would be nothing but bad news. I’m talking about rejecting someone sweet, who seems like they’d be really great for you. I carried guilt and regret about this very thing for years…until I told my story, and worked it out, in a guest post for my friend, James Gummer — The Sweetest Boy She Never Knew.

I’ve been a working writer for 20 years, covering a wide range of topics, but mostly mental health, financial literacy, and other social issues. In 2016, I created PlentyWoman.com, an informative, inspirational website helping women manage anxiety. How-to's, essays, guided meditations, and journaling exercises. In 2020, I'm headed back to school for an MA in Clinical Psychology; I want to practice expressive writing therapy. On the creative side, I write plays, screenplays, and short stories. Currently, I'm chipping away at a collection of horror stories inspired by childhood events.
