The Girl Called 'Cigarette' Never Quits

Renée shares a memoir with a purpose. Her journey from being counted out and overlooked in childhood through her twenties. From being told, "You are not college material" to earning a Master's degree in Education with honors. From that kid, the last one left when picking teams in gym class to high school bowling coach! Passing through addiction and many other valleys along the road. As a teacher, always remembering how it felt and making sure to always take the opportunity to right those wrongs.Changing course and rewriting your life's narrative is your rite! Don't let your life be summed up with a first draft. Everyone deserves a chance to revise and edit before their final copy is put to print. Learn to embrace your past, epic failures, moments when you cringe at yourself, your disappointments in others, and by harnessing it all, change your own trajectory, in turn the trajectory of the people in your personal awareness.
