About me
Hi, I'm Melody Star, and ready to share my debut book with you.
In 2021, I underwent a traumatic experience that forced me to change my name and appearance to separate myself from the pain and abuse I endured. Writing Ashes to Dust was a way for me to process the trauma and find some light in the darkness.
My book is about the stories my brain came up with during a dark time when I was suffering from food poisoning and dehydration. I was then subjected to false imprisonment, assault and battery by the hospital staff, neglect, abuse, and emotional damage that has left me forever changed.
This experience has been a huge obstacle to my passion for music, which has been a lifelong pursuit. The trauma has blocked everything, and even though I still desperately want to sing and create an album, I haven't been able to since the event happened. Despite this setback, I remain hopeful that I can one day regain that passion and create something beautiful.
I've always been passionate about writing and music, and I've dreamed of publishing a book and creating my own album for as long as I can remember. While this debut book was not the one I expected to ever write, I'm proud to have written it and hope that it can help others going through similar experiences.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and my book. I hope that Ashes to Dust can shed some light on the darkness of trauma and inspire others to find their own light.
