For Epping’s Lisa Jane Hussey, writing down her story was a rewarding experience.
Ms Hussey is one of 10 authors who contributed to a new book, A Message to Your Younger Self, sharing the stories of the moments in their lives that helped make them who they are today.
The book is the second in Antoniette Pellegrini’s We Inspire Now anthology series.
Ms Hussey penned her story – set in 1997 when she was in year 12 – on the advice of a friend who wrote for the first book in the series.
“Since I was 25, I have been working out what my story is… it wasn’t until Antoniette that I realised I needed to tell my story,” Ms Hussey said.
“As scary as it is, I knew I had to share.”
While the book is Ms Hussey’s first published work, she has had a passion for writing and sharing stories for a while.
“I’m a blogger and a podcaster so I have been writing for a long time,” she said.
“I have also kept a journal since I was nine.”
