I Live a Sawdness Life

By Janice Michaelis

This book is about the different moments in my life—moments like the good, the bad, the ugly, and the beautiful. I capture the moments I see, feel, and remember. I have included some artwork created by myself as well as Clarissa Obregon and Amber Rose. I wanted to create this book to be able to reach out to people and be able to help them through whatever they are struggling with, and this is my arms reaching out to you giving warm, understanding hugs.

My birth name is Janice Dee Michaelis and I was born on January 15th, 1983 in the small town of Brooksville in sunny Florida. I was an awkward, depressed child growing up, but I finally blossomed when I hit adulthood. I realized that I didn’t have to live the life of trying to fit in anymore. My life took an even bigger turn when I met the most wonderful man for whom changed my perspective on life. He has made such a positive impact on me and just thinking about it blows my mind. He is now my fiancé and we have been together for 10 years now, but I also feel that I too had a positive impact on his life for he is now a grounded and a patient man and I love him so much.
