NOW AVAILABLE: If Only The Names Were Changed

Super excited to announce the release of my first full length collection of essays available now through Civil Coping Mechanisms.

If Only The Names Were Changed Cover

IF ONLY THE NAMES WERE CHANGED
Andrew Miller

“With evocative and compelling prose, Andrew Miller’s If Only The Names Were Changed melds the personal and the political, first-hand introspection on mental illness and drug abuse with poetic digressions and anti-authoritarian screeds.”
–Eric-Eliza Wood Obenauf, co-publisher of Two Dollar Radio

“Andrew Miller’s If Only the Names Were Changed is the immensity of self turned into sharp, dangerous literature.”
–Gabino Iglesias, author of Zero Saints
