Bare: A Novella
What do you do when your body decides to give you the middle finger?
Gertrude is waging a war and she doesn't know if she wants to win it, or not. It's a quiet war, with only one possible casualty. Her parent's kitchen table is a battlefield. In the car with her wife, another skirmish. Her cavalry are very few, and morale is falling. She's at war with herself and her insurgent body. Follow Gertrude as she looks back on her life and the revolutionary moments that led her to where she is; On floor eight of the hospital wondering if maybe, just maybe, she can win this war.
Full of trauma, heartbreak, and pain. One woman journeys through love and loss as her body turns on itself and she has to find her way through the darkness of her own mind.
Gertrude has to do some hard soul-searching and fight her mind, soul, and even her own body to survive the toxic relationship she has with it.
Can she truly "Bare" it all?
