Fewer Versions of Myself
A collection of poems by Lonnie Woods III
Book Description
Over the years I created multiple versions of myself or masks to compensate for my lack of self acceptance. I perfected my ability to transition from one version to the next based on the circumstances. Eventually, I grew tired of performing and separated who I truly am from who I was pretending to be. The result is Fewer Versions of Myself, a collection of 20 original poems that narrate the stages that I endured on my journey towards becoming the most authentic version of Lonnie.
From the Author
Self publishing my first book was a true labor of love. I have been writing poetry since my teenage years and always dreamed of releasing my work to a larger audience. Fewer Versions Of Myself is a love letter to myself and anyone else who has ever had to perform to survive. -Lonnie
