When You Need a Winter Warm Up and It’s Not Even Winter Yet
Two very real personas raising holy hell. I guess this has been years in the making. If I didn’t know better, I’d be thinking dissociative identity disorder (aka split personality.) But there’s no disintegration into a mental health condition, just no-holds-barred internal struggles.

The me that grew up not knowing the arctic blasts of winter, enjoying warm subtropical temps, and me#2 that experienced over a decade of British winters and senses this promises to be a brutal one.

And books are not meant to be that!
