Kristie De Garis is a writer, photographer, and artist. Her premier novel, Drystone: A Life Rebuilt, is a beautiful gut-punch of a memoir that offers an unflinching view of a childhood being different and alien, dysfunctional family ties, and alcohol abuse that acts as undiagnosed neurodivergent coping skills. Everyone has a story to tell, and Kristie is here to talk about how she got it wrong but still persisted, and how her eventual fascination with stones and their visual impact helped her do course corrections to success. Kristie says write your story! Start today!
