My Name Is Marshall, My Name Is Marshall

What does it mean to love where you're at - especially when "where you're at" feels like staring down a dead end sign?28 year-old Ainslie McNeil is drowning. She faces an identity and mental health crisis, neither of which are exactly dinner table topics in Brackish Cove, Cape Breton Island.With cynicism and a hefty dose of sarcasm in tow, Ainslie decides it's time to rewrite her life, hoping there's a version of herself worth saving. However, realization hits as truths are confronted, and all is not what "she" intended, and the discoveries are going to send shockwaves beyond her little Nova Scotian village.My Name is Marshall is the first novella of emerging writer Taylor Linloff, exploring queer coming-of-age and the admittedly messy beauty of learning to accept the life you never planned.
