Beschreibung

Growing up with divorced parents, Roger always felt a divide within his family. He saw his dad once a year as he lived far away. He witnessed arguments between his parents and stepparents and was exposed to domestic and family violence. He retreated often to his room in an attempt to escape the harsh reality of life. This is where he discovered his passion for writing short stories. At the age of twenty, Roger's family moves to the United States. He is conflicted and decides to stay in Canada. He comes out, has a boyfriend, makes good friends, and starts living the life he always thought he'd have. Until one day, depression and childhood traumas catch up to him.

Über den Autor

Roger Moreau was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. He started writing short stories at the age of thirteen. A child of divorce, Roger lived with his mother, and on visits to his father's home, Roger always had a notebook with him for writing. Roger's first book, A Boy Growing Up Different, is a childhood memoir about growing up with divorced parents, domestic violence, discovering sexuality and addiction. I'm Not Him, his second memoir, follows Roger's struggles with mental health on a path to finding recovery.

In his mid-twenties, Roger travelled the world working on a cruise line. After a few years, he returned to Canada and moved into Social Services. Roger is a Youth Support Worker and has worked in youth resource centres, where he also held weekly LGBTQ2+ youth group meetings. He has also worked in youth shelters, crisis stabilization units, group homes and independent living programs.

On his time off, he is with his two cats, keeps in touch with family and friends from all over the world, and is always writing. Roger has also produced several short films about his life and on issues of addiction, mental health, suicide ideation, sexuality and gender identity.

Roger is also the author of, Ship's Life, his third memoir, from his time traveling the world and working overseas.
