Christina Fulton
The Author
My poetry collection To the Man in the Red Suit is officially published by the good people at Rootstock Publishing. My book stitches together my father's unconventional life and death. I try to capture his child-like sense of humor and whimsy and my very adult and fragmented sense of loss. I try to come to terms with generations of mental disorders and the realization of my own.
