This collection tells the story of a college age girl who must deal with her conflicted feelings over her Mormon upbringing, a burgeoning queer identity that struggles to be labeled, and the often tumultuous reality of starting to date in college.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAny of these three factors are hard enough to handle on their own, but in reality, intersectionality is everywhere we look. We are never just one struggle. Internal Salvation focuses on this truth, and while it dwells on the journey of one individual, its message is universal. Self-discovery is an important and individual journey, but with each story told, we can find ways to relate to those we never thought we could. While not everyone checks the same boxes covered in this collection, the hope is that anyone can connect to the reality of concurrent struggles that prevent us from figuring out who we really are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eL. Saige Johnson writes on the fantastical, the unseen, and the felt. Her projects explore the intersection of reality and identity, seeking to connect her readers to characters and poems that come from the heart. Located in the PNW, she enjoys the turning of seasons and the discovery of something new. Her greatest aspirations are to have a full floor-to-ceiling bookshelf, a house surrounded by hydrangea bushes, and a published novel that readers can relate to.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"L.
