Join host Tom Riddell as he welcomes author Maiya Katherine to The Writers Lounge. Sit back and relax as Maiya discusses what it's like to be a writer and she will also talk to us about her book:  An Apology to My Demons

An automobile strikes a guardrail, and it ends up in a lake. The driver is trapped. She begins to see her life flash before her as the water slowly seeps in but it's her fears and her past demons and monsters that consume her thoughts in the waning moments of her life. Chaos and turmoil had been ruling her for years; a direct result of being bullied and mistreated during her childhood but those monsters and demons were kept hidden. Others saw a productive and self-reliant person. The truth was she was emotionally broken, suffering from low self-esteem and from being in co-dependent toxic relationships. In order to cope she shoved those skeletons away. Now they were back. Awful memories surfaced while she watched the water enter her car, ready to drown her.

"A repository of dead dreams, dead hopes, broken promises, betrayals, lies, and worse, violations of body, violations of trust, and violations of innocence."
