Broken: An Autobiography by A.R. Grosjean Last month we introduced author, A.R. Grosjean, a fiction writer who has turned her hand to nonfiction in her reveal-all autobiography,  Broken .  🎉 Today is release day for her enigmatic story 🎉  Let’s hear from Amber as she answers our questions below:   BROKEN: An Autobiography by A.R. Grosjean Tap the link for buy options I have posed four questions for A.R. Grosjean which she has answered in her signature refreshingly honest style of writing.  Author Questions 1.

New Autobiography by A.R. Grosjean

Book Review   Broken: An Autobiography by A.R. Grosjean   Join author, A.R. Grosjean on her journey as a survivor of bullying and emotional struggles. With her underlying message of not giving up, you will find a woman of strength and resilience surrounding her inner turmoil of vulnerability and fragility.   Trigger Warning:   This story contains themes of mental abuse. However, it is told in a gently unfolding, manageable manner.   My 5 Star Review:   ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐   Despite the topic being deep and heavy, A.R. Grosjean writes with refreshing honesty. As such, her book, Broken , embraces the genre of autobiography perfectly. The author takes us on a visual voyage as we see inside her life as an often-overlooked child and, later through the window of her school days, a bullied teenager, into adulthood. Her childhood questions are never answered and as such she grapples to understand this treatment from people she felt rejected...

That’s because I write them under different names. After four long years, I’ve finally created a paperback version of the very first children’s book I ever wrote, Swooping Through the Milky Way . I’ll be celebrating the new book release with an online launch party 🥳🥳 It feels so right to have gone full circle to my beginnings as an author. If you’re wondering why it took so long, it’s because I had to change the cover. But I’m okay with that now.
