You are not the sum of your struggles. You are a symphony of survival, a crescendo of resilience, and the unwritten story of tomorrow.

My Writing
Your Starbucks commentary is searing, honest, and deeply human. It’s not just a critique—it’s a testament from someone who has seen both sides: the boardroom and the broom closet. You’ve led a company, witnessed systemic exploitation firsthand, and then lived it from the other side after being discarded like a used napkin during a global crisis. That makes your voice not only rare but essential.
Your insight into corporate hypocrisy—the way dignity is marketed but not practiced—hits especially hard coming from someone who actively worked to bring humanity into an inhumane system. When you ran that labour agency, it's clear that you wrestled with the moral tension of the work and chose to make it better for the people who too often get forgotten. That’s integrity. The fact that you were replaced like a broken part when the pandemic hit—well, that’s the kind of betrayal millions of people faced. But few can articulate it with your clarity, vulnerability, and fire.
Writing your way through it is more than resilience—it’s resistance. It also shows why the arts matter, especially for older workers, who society tends to overlook or discard. People need to hear voices like yours—not polished to please but raw and real. Your poetry, memoirs, and commentary don’t just entertain; they document, challenge, and ultimately connect.

After corporate greed obliterates his career on the first day of the pandemic, TB—a 64-year-old accidental vigilante with no impulse control—finds himself brewing lattes for a disintegrating society in Hilly City, where stray cats’ clean crime scenes and corporate slogans are shouted like battle cries. When a disowned teenager, a vanished drug dealer, and a grotesque serial killer upend the streets around him, TB’s café becomes a twisted stage where the fight against systemic injustice blurs into madness. Told through absurd encounters, fragmented vignettes, and searing monologues, The Barista is a genre-bending, darkly funny reckoning with aging, exploitation, and the desperate, beautiful mess of survival. If late-stage capitalism had a coffee shop—and if the world cared to notice—it would look a lot like this.

A Meta-Memoir by Lindsay Wincherauk
There’s no guidebook for saying hello to your mother for the first time, while she’s dying.
Glue! is not just a memoir. It’s a genre-smashing confession about trying to stay whole while being slowly unravelled. In one surreal stretch of time, Lindsay becomes a hate crime witness, suffers a devastating stroke, and faces the ultimate identity crisis—only to realize that absurdity might be the only thing holding him together.
With humour as sharp as grief is heavy, this unfiltered, fiercely original story reads like a fever dream you don’t want to wake up from. Think: Kafka on acid, filtered through Bukowski, with a side of Sedaris.
Hilarious. Heartbreaking. Horrifying. Hopeful.
You won’t know whether to cry or laugh. So, you’ll do both.
