Sorting Our Selves Featured in The Faber Writing Anthology

The prologue and first chapter of my memoir, "Sorting Our Selves: Embracing and Releasing the Stories that Shape Us," have been published in the Nonfiction edition of The Faber Writing Anthology 2022-2023, released by Allen & Unwin.

It is an honour to have my work featured in this distinguished collection, which showcases a selection of compelling voices in nonfiction. "Sorting Our Selves" weaves together my personal journey and research into memory, meaning, and purpose. It begins with my decision to abandon a career as a psychologist to pursue love across the world, only to embark on a far deeper exploration of identity—becoming a wife, mother, and someone both lost and rediscovered. Across cultures and life’s pivotal moments, the memoir reflects on how we make sense of our lives and form our identities.

The inclusion of my work in this anthology marks a significant step in bringing these reflections to readers, and I look forward to sharing more of this journey in my blog articles.
