I am floored and grateful when people tell me some of my stories made them feel seen, helped them heal, and start their journeys to forgiveness of themselves and others.

More quotes by Chimeka Garricks

I believe oppression, injustice, discrimination, bad behaviour, crime, etc., should always be called out.

The feedback and reviews have been excellent. But what I have enjoyed most is how the stories have touched some people personally—making them reminisce, rebuild broken relationships, and start journeys to self-repair and healing.

I tried to write the truth as I know it. To show that the issues are complex, hued with plenty of grey, and that all major players are complicit in varying ways to the dysfunction.

I think it's honing and polishing a story into its best possible form. Sometimes, it's just a little cosmetic procedure, and other times, it feels like open heart surgery. Either way, being an editor is a magical work.
