Pam Franklin spent a lifetime trying to escape her past. Pam was born and raised in and around Jackson, Mississippi where she spent most of her life. At sixty-five years old, she decided to embrace her early childhood and write it down in a journal. The process was so cleansing she wanted to share her story with other people who had lived through the same type of abuse she had endured at the hand of her mentally unstable older sister. 

“I share my story in an effort to be an advocate for survival,” says Franklin. “I also advocate for the survival of other adults still recovering from an abusive childhood and for the survival and protection of children still fighting to survive sibling abuse. I also share my story to be a resource to readers who have escaped abuse, but want to understand the enormity of danger that is present for others.”

When not working or writing, she spends time in Charleston, South Carolina with her daughter, Whitney, and her grandsons, Teague and Crews. She now resides in Celebration, FL with her husband of twenty-five years, Bobby.
