WRETCH like me: a book for the crazies, burnouts, and hopeless cases
"I had stretched my egos beyond their limits, broken through the temporal veil of illusory reality, survived impossible odds, learned what love actually looks like, and then re-learned what it meant to be a human person... I had a lot to say, but it wasn't 'give away all your stuff and go on an adventure' anymore."

We first meet our protagonist as she struggles to stand after a long fall down to rock bottom. What follows is a manically organized collection of quantum poetry, automatic writing, personal essays, and the true story of one woman's journey hitch hiking, hooking, and praying her way around America in search of a place called Home.
Told through the voices of "at least nine" dissociative identities and compiled in the midst of 2020's apocalyptic fog, Jaqi Nix-Fuller's creative memoir takes the reader on a dizzying trip into madness, memory loss, and metaphysical revelations. Despite a lifetime of avid self-destruction, Jaqi Nix-Fuller is living proof that there's no such thing as a lost cause and that, with enough positivity, faith, and hope, it can get better.

"Wretch like me" is a collection of autobiographical short stories, philosophical essays, beat poetry, and theoretically fictional prose. This creative nonfiction memoir studies religious beliefs, spirituality, morality, and metaphysics. These topics come together to discuss Taoism, Zen Buddhism, Christianity and the Bible, Quantum Physics, Magic, Time Travel, Surrealism, Existential Nihilism, Unconditional Positivity, Asceticism, and the Power of Faith in an understandable, albeit nonsensical, way.
Through her experiences with surviving poverty, addiction, homelessness, prostitution, traumatic brain injuries, domestic violence, helplessness, memory loss, hospitals, and mental illness, she shares her understanding of reality, consciousness, and Truth.

About the Author

It's almost 3 AM on September 20, 2020, and I'm alone at home finishing up this book. My husband is camping on-site surveying the land we now own in rural Washington. We're learning about permaculture. Noninvasive native edible plants are already growing abundant and wild in the former riverbed we've been entrusted with, so we're going to follow nature's lead and encourage the growth of a self-sustaining native food forest. The wild edible plants that grow on my land are free for anyone to eat. I believe that food should be free. Now I can help create that reality.
We've got everything we need to build an extremely modest off-grid self-contained homestead. We've got just exactly enough to live outdoors among the trees and focus on healing. Healing the land, healing ourselves, healing whoever shows up and wants some healing.
I want to help homeless people sell crafts and buy beer. I want to publish a quarterly magazine to showcase the incredible writing and drawings and ideas that come out of my silenced friends. I want to feed people and I want everyone to be safe in a bed at night. I want to make medicine out of plants and I want to make magic out of metal. I want to heal with my hands the way my husband has done his whole life. I want to do good things that make my heart happy. I want to help every1 feel hopefuller.
