About The Author

Meet Susan B Strong

I write because the world needs honest stories — stories born from real life, not polished for comfort but shared for connection. From the whimsical adventures of Princess Pickle to the raw, unfiltered truths in my memoirs, every word comes from a place of lived experience.

I am sharing my story so it's not hidden behind walls of shadows. I am sharing my story for awareness and to let others know — we are survivors.

"I want to share my story so it's not hidden behind walls of shadows. We are survivors."
