The World I Once Knew


 I was recently reminded of this blog I used to run for our family from 14-18


This blog is a time capsule of my younger self, a reflection of our family’s life and stories (with a few guest entries from my parents) - offering a glimpse into the world as I once saw it.


As you read these posts, I hope they offer some insight into my journey and the unfiltered words of my teenage self. But they’re just part of the story. 


The full picture - everything I’ve learned, questioned, and come to understand - is shared in my debut memoir, BANNED.


I hope this work honors the child I was and the courage it took to dream of something more as I was questioning everything I knew about the world around me in silence.


This story means the world to me, and I believe its message is one worth sharing. That’s why I’m making it available for FREE - so it can reach as many people as possible.


BANNED is currently top 3 in Apple Books and number one in Amazon LGBTQ memoir!


I invite you to explore the full story at BANNEDthebook.com.


Thank you for taking this journey with me.


With love, 

Wes
