The Path of Hope

By Chloe Traviss

Through anxiety, depression, anorexia, and borderline personality disorder I've learned and overcame an immense amount. These past few years have been the hardest years of my life. I've learned a lot about myself and learned a lot about who I don't want to be. This book portrays the memories that have got me to the point that I am in my life, strong and still here. If I just gave up when I wanted to, I wouldn't have been able to see that everything is temporary. Which isn't a bad thing, but actually for the better. Since everything is temporary, you have the choice of what memories you want to define you and what you want to learn from. Through my life journey I am leaning to love myself and accept myself, and I now understand that your disorders don't define you. It's what you make of your memories that do.

Chloe Traviss

My name is CHLOE TRAVISS and I am 18 years old. I began writing this book at the age of 15 when things started to get really hard for me. The only healthy coping mechanism I had at that time was writing, so I would write everywhere I went. Anything that happened that sparked my eye is written down in this book. I finished writing this book when I just turned 17, then finally made enough money to self-publish it at the age of 18. Writing has forever been a passion of mine since I was able to pick up a pencil. I would bring down pages and pages of nonsense stories to show my parents when I was very young. This book is hopefully my start to my writing career that I am going to continue to persue through my years. And a big thank you to anyone who has bought this novel, helping me follow what I've always dreamed of doing: becoming a writer.
