Brian Pelletier’s unflinchingly honest memoir about coming out in a religious home will be out June 1, 2024.

Creative arts as a therapeutic outlet
Throughout my life I have been drawn to the creative arts as a therapeutic outlet. I have used various media including writing, choreography, dance, film/tv, photography, and graphic design to express myself.
