Please help me fund my books

Hi, my name is Ami Nash, and I'm fundraising to help cover the costs of various diaristic writing projects I am currently undertaking. I'm a 29 yr old working-class woman from the North of 

Ireland with multiple learning difficulties.

I don't believe I have an extraordinary life worth reading about, but I certainly capture moments we would rather forget or desperately hope to remember. I've kept a diary since I was 9 and hope to publish them all in a book series. My diaries follow themes of sectarianism, working class struggles, unfiltered debauchery, getting chased by the IRA, childhood emotional neglect, mental health, the manchester party scene, coming of ages, drug addiction, eating disorders, exploration of all kinds of scandals, wars, pandemics, epidemic, cults, guns, communes, the rise and fall of MKAT, searching, longing, loving and all the witchcraft In between.

My diaries have already gained a cult following; people are interested in hearing stories about derry, especially after the worldwide success of the TV program derry girls. My diaries offer a unique perspective of daily life; they are written in derry dialect and slang, which infuses my story with the rich linguistic world of the northern Irish language.

I just released my first book, ‘Dear Derry’ it is a diaristic study of female adolescence in the 1990s and 2000s, in the pressure cooker of the North of Ireland post troubles.  It's an experimental work of narrative nonfiction written in dialect. I released it to the public for free, beautifully bound and designed. It was a self-funded personal project and was a huge physiological release for me in which I uncovered traumatic blockages. My next step is to cathartically revisit, edit and release my next book ‘Dear Manchester’ I'm hoping one day to get published, but if not, then i'd be fully satisfied and happy with it being archived in the hands of friends and families, something we can all look back on the momentous memories we shared together.

All money generously donated will go towards agent membership, postage, binding & printing, a professional editor and covering costs of 'dear derry'.
