About Me — Patrick Bryce Wright
An author of paranormal gay romance, fantasy, and sci-fi
I’m third gender, bi/pansexual, and neuro-divergent. I have Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) and am hard of hearing, and my goal as a novelist, poet, and Medium writer is to advocate for the rights of people with DID, the LGBTQIA+ community, and the d/Deaf community. My upcoming novels include Facing the Curse, The Summoning, Conjure Hill, and The Truth of a Kaleidoscope Mind. All four novels involve my advocating for one or more of the groups I’m a member of.
Unique to my life is the fact my significant other, Keith, also has DID. We are two people with DID whose “self-states” or “parts” all fell in love with each other. Our pet phrase we say to each other is, “All of me loves all of you.” This is our bond and our promise to each other. We support each other in coping with both our DID and the inevitable Complex PTSD that caused it. Both of us are also third gender, so we support each other concerning issues of gender identity as well. In my case, my pronouns are he/they.
As a writer on Medium, I focus mainly on topics such as surviving trauma, healing from trauma, and the effects of trauma on the psyche and body. I also discuss DID and Religious Trauma Syndrome, which I developed from attending fundamentalist churches during my childhood…
