my friend fox
Ultimo Press


​My Friend Fox is a story of belonging.

At its heart is the living, breathing version of a mental health file that psych wards, doctors, mental health staff or rehab workers know little about or worse, use as evidence of diagnoses. This is my account of what happened to me, shadowed by the story of a fox who knows he'll never belong. My Friend Fox contains 30 illustrations, or what I consider photographs, of extraordinary events that are etched in my mind.

Available at most bookstores, online booksellers and on Audiobooks.
