Close Enough To Burn
Close enough to burn
Tytti Houtepen
Dedication
To the women who are done being “safe.” To those who have already lived, loved, and learned that sometimes you have to burn down the beige life you were told to want to find the fire you were meant to lead. This is for the ones who know that experience isn’t a stain, it’s the ink of a masterpiece.
