Berlyn writes about the ordinary moments that quietly shape who we become. Through memoir, she explores identity, memory, faith, grief, OCD, and the invisible rules we carry long after childhood. Rather than offering easy answers, her work invites readers to investigate their own stories and ask,
"Why am I like this?"
Her debut memoir, Conditional Existence: A Collection of Little Backstories and the Footnotes They Left Behind, is available now for preorder. When she's not writing, she's usually photographing tiny things, working on one of her fourteen thousand hobbies, or spending time with her husband and their dogs.
