The beginning alone blew me away...literally. Besides the obvious (great!!!) Picture. You started this story with much bravado and sureness. As if you were very eager to get going. I can feel that. Its not normal. Its special. Thank you. Cant wait to read more. And by the way that drawing on my 2nd page was by me of my baby sister. I was protecting her. Just wanted you to know. Talk to you soon ...have a blessed new year sis.

As a prologue, it hints of conflict and tragedy and a story that needs to be told. So I think it is extremely successful as an introduction to your bio.

Only suggestion is to change "if I was a ballerina" to the subjunctive "if I were a ballerina".

Hello Lea,
Perhaps this story will involve a little less pain and violence, I can only guess. So, is this going to be a trilogy, like JRR Tolkien's The Hobbit? I'll be interested in seeing what develops.
Blessings,
Tom

    There's so much content. It's no other choice but to break it down to 3 books. With these writings I break free. Thank you again my friend you're the best!

This prologue is well-written. It would draw in readers like me and others.
Only the tiniest of suggestions:
I'm pouring shudders out in gratitude that I do not have to go back there"
Just put a period after there and before the quotations marks at the end of the sentence.

Step lightly intrepid ones....
Just insert a comma after lightly.

Lea,

This is a courageous first step forward in telling your life story. Your revelations will surely provide the strength and comfort to others who have lived similar life experiences. I know this is a deeply personal story but I want you to know that I am profoundly touched by your willingness to share your life's story here on Fanstory.

I have bookmarked each chapter of your book. You're my hero.

Blessings always,

Eugene

So this book will be going back again over some of the same things you covered in the first book? You mention violence and I'm wondering how this will be different. Maybe you are planning to tell more about your sisters? I thought this book would be what happened after you managed to get away, but now I'm not sure.

    The 1st book covers my life from birth to age of 17 2nd book. Will cover from that age up until 15 years later. And then there will be a third, which is my life to. Now there is so much to tell so very much happy to have you along for the ride! My sister's at that time we're safe. Mom was with her father, the youngest one and my sister was with an ant in-law of The Valley far enough. They couldn't do anything to her. Life for me carried on being difficult in different ways. I was wholly unprepared for being on my own and so it was very difficult at first I also went to a place. I shouldn't have been some place i'd known before. However, that will come up in the next book. Thank you again thank you again thank you so much for reading. I appreciate your consistency. You are a very kind human being and I appreciate all your words thank you!
