A New Novel by Author Tammy Gagnon, No Longer Silent - A True Story in Which Against All Odds Tammy Overcomes Many Traumatic Challenges

Alexandria, VA, June 06, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Tammy left home at 14, fleeing an incestuous childhood, running from guilt and shame too overwhelming for any little girl. Tammy experienced further betrayal and feelings of worthlessness, suffering from additional assaults on her young body. Turning to drugs and alcohol numbed the pain for short periods. After years of attempting to numb the pain this resulted in more questions then answers, "Why didn't I tell?" "Why can't I cry? "What is wrong with me?" She was out of control and destructive. She ended up in prison.

How does a woman battle back from the edge to thrive with a new life? How did she stop blaming herself and overcome such a challenging childhood? At great cost, Tammy is finally ready to end the silence and speak her truth, as she never has before. She shares her journey from horror to that of one she is grateful for and now happier than ever before.

Tammy Gagnon is on a mission to help others claim their voices and speak their truth. In No Longer Silent, Tammy shares her journey and life lessons about forgiveness and rebuilding... of learning to love herself wholly, and to overcome the darkness of her past with a new message of love and light for all. That Tammy made it out alive is a miracle. That her story is inspiring to others, to help find their voice and reclaim their lives is Tammy’s greatest blessing.
