# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Michelle Cray - Book Signing and Discussion of Stretched 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 27 Jun, 2026 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Michelle Cray must face the harsh reality of her childhood in order to overcome the pain that has long held her captive. From the time she was five years old, when she witnessed the near-death experience of her sister, her world was shaped by trauma. Her mother struggled with mental illness, she was abandoned by those she loved, and she was scarred by sexual assault, carrying the wounds of her past into every relationship she formed as an adult.

Stretched follows Michelle’s true story through the long aftermath of trauma, and how early abandonment and violence seep into identity, self-worth, and the choices she made. Similar to The Glass Castle and Educated, her memoir depicts how hope can thrive in the face of incredible hardship, how pain can be transformed into resilience, and how forgiveness can free oneself of the burdens that lie within.

About Michelle:
Hi! I’m Michelle Cray, mother of two boys and author of my memoir, Stretched, and my comedic novella, Not About Him. I grew up in Nutley, a small town in northern New Jersey. When I turned 18, I left home to attend Syracuse University and pursue a degree in finance. Life in the corporate world worked out for me for a solid fifteen years, until 2020 when the world shut down and I gave birth to my first son. At that point, I found greater joy in raising a family and was lucky enough to be able to quit my job and start my career as an author.
