Letters to My Abusers

Update!

Latest Deadline: January 15th 2008

Dear Survivors,

It has been an incredible experience receiving all of your letters. Both heartbreaking and inspiring at times, I am deeply moved by your stories. The process is still ongoing and I am excited about the direction of this powerful collection. As of now, I do not have a publisher and am planning on self publishing it as an ebook. I hope to later publish it as a printed book.

I have found an incredible place called Shalom Mountain, and they will be receiving part of the proceeds. There will be a a retreat for sexual abuse survivors in 2009 and I am looking forward to using some of the proceeds to sponsor survivors who may not be able to afford to come to this healing and loving place.

I look forward to the remaining letters that will arrive in my mailbox and will honor and cherish them for the act of bravery that they are. If your letter is selected to be part of the collection, I will contact you in January and as per the guidelines and terms, you will receive a complimentary copy. The rest of the letters will be posted here on the site, unless you have specifically requested for it not to be put up.

Keep healing and growing, and keep them coming. Thank you again for your courage. You are all truly inspirational.

Lovingly, Stephanie Gagos
