Australian story: Abused JW kid now Melbourne writer

Inquisitor

In the March 2007 issue of Quadrant, an "Australian review journal of literature and ideas", there is a small biography entitled:
Bedevilled: Growing Up Jehovah's Witness
by Ashlley Morgan Shae.
I read the article last night. Very sad.
Anyone else read it? I wonder if Ashlley is a poster on JWD.

Just upload it to sendspace or some other filesharing service. When it's finished uploading, send us the link.

Thank you for the recommendation, Sir Nose.
I only knew of picture sharing sites, so I didn't know what to do with the pdf file. Silly, ignorant me! lol

Let me know what you all think of the story when you've read it.
I'm still curious if the author is a member on JWD (not that every former JW has to be). But it would be great to hear from her.
If you're keen on reading some of her poetry, go to
