Herrin writes about the various forms of love, surviving sexual trauma, toxic relationships, and most importantly, healing. Her work emphasizes the beauty of nature and the curative powers within each of us.
NEW!
Sunday Mornings At The River, 2022
One Thousand Good Answers takes Herrin’s first collection and, using the blackout method, creates a whole new body of work.
In the wreckage of new trauma, and with a determination to heal,
Herrin revisits the old experience of abandonment and betrayal to rewrite her own self-love story.
