labingiMy non-fiction book Being Cut on relationship cutoff (severing contact) officially launches in ebook format today!
Blurb:
Chances are you have cut someone out of your life or someone has cut you out. Cutoff—severing all contact—is a common way to manage troubled relationships, yet it remains virtually unstudied and semi-taboo to discuss. We have the right to cut people off. Nonetheless, being cut off is often traumatic in ways our culture fails to recognize. Being Cut is a first-of-its-kind exploration of our society’s attitudes toward cutoff and a call for a cultural transformation that respects cutoff while being mindful of the harm it can do.
So if you haven't already heard me maunder enough about cutoff, you can now read more now!
In all seriousness, I owe many thanks to all the folks on DW who responded to my posts on cutoff over the years. From those who offered sympathy when I was in the throes of grief over being cut off by a dear friend to those who shared their views extensively and are quoted (under aliases) in this book, you have been a large part of this journey. Thank you.
