Once Upon A Time I Survived Myself - Paperback

by Rylin Rossano (Author)

Once Upon a Time, I Survived Myself is part memoir, part healing guide, and part fairy tale gone rogue. This book is for the girls who feel too much, overthink everything, and have been told they're either too much-or never enough.

Through poetic reflections, raw honesty, and lyrical storytelling, Rylin Rossano takes you into the chaos of growing up too fast. From chronic illness and anxiety to heartbreak, grief, and identity, she writes through every ache with a softness that refuses to be broken. This is not a how-to. It's not a happily ever after. It's a survival story.

Written in the thick of healing, Once Upon a Time, I Survived Myself is a love letter to anyone who's ever wondered if they'd make it through. It's about rewriting the narrative, choosing to stay soft in a world that tries to harden you, and learning-slowly-that being a mess doesn't mean you're not magical.

This book is for the girls who are still becoming. And for the girl Rylin used to be.

She survived. And now, she writes.
