Author Venus Chandler reflects on her lifes journey with A Silent Scream. 
 
My story is far from special. Unfortunately, it doesn’t make me unique and I’m almost positive that there are other stories out there similar to mine. My main purpose in writing this book was to bring awareness to something that surprisingly happens every day. Molestation, rape, sex, drugs, money and prostitution are all things that molded me into the person I am today. I am not my past and I am not a victim. I am a survivor. I am writing this book for every broken person, especially women. I am writing this book for every person who has considered suicide, murder, or has suffered from PTSD. I am writing this book for every person who has had their innocence snatched, every person who has been sexually molested, abused and misused by people who were supposed to protect them. A Silent Scream is for you! Take back yourself. Find your voice! I, Venus Chandler, give you permission to no longer let your past define you. As long as you have a breath in your body and movement in your soul allow yourself to dream and become that person that you always wanted to be.
