"My name is Faith Elizabeth Samuels. Well, it used to be, before I left my fundamentalist helicopter parents and started going by Luna... My counselor tells me writing will help me to 'heal'.

So, fair reader, does my little tale of woe intrigue you? If so, come join my merry band of misfits on this roller coaster of life."
