Duct Tape and Grace was written for you if:
- You grew up in a house that held too much
- You’ve ever had to hold yourself together with grit and not much else
- You’re a veteran, a survivor, an NPE, or someone who found family in unexpected places
- You’ve laughed at something you probably shouldn’t have — because that’s how you survived
SAMPLE LINES FROM THE Duct Tape and Grace:
“I was born standing up, talking back, fists in the air.”
“Love and chaos breathed the same air.”
“Forgiveness is not a feeling. It’s a choice you make in the direction of your own healing.”
“I was never nobody’s.”
THE AUTHOR:
Shelley Huff is a Marine Corps veteran, survivor, and woman who laughs anyway. She grew up in California in a house with a revolving door — raised by her grandparents, surrounded by chaos, poverty, and enough love to survive it all.
She writes because some stories need to be said out loud.
