JAKARTA - Actress Aurelie Moeremans recently released a book titled "Broken Strings" which contains the story of her dark past.
However, there is a noble mission behind his decision to share his story, namely so that no one else feels alone in facing trauma that may be the same as his.
Unlike most writers, Aurelie chose to release her work in an e-book format that can be accessed for free. This decision was taken by him because his main goal was not to seek commercial profit.
"Because from the beginning my goal was not commercial. I want the story to be accessible to anyone who needs it, without barriers," said Aurelie in a short message, Wednesday, January 14.
He is well aware that out there, there are many women and parents who may have experienced similar things but do not dare to speak up.
"I know many women and parents experience the same thing and feel alone," she said.
Initially, this writing was made only for himself as a form of honesty and therapy. However, as time went on, he felt that his story could become a "friend" for those in need.
"I wrote it as a form of honesty to myself... From there I felt, maybe my story could be a friend for them," he said.
The decision not to "sell trauma" shows the sincerity of Aurelie's intentions. She does not want there to be an impression that she is using her bitter story to seek material gain.
Nevertheless, he will still prepare a printed version of this book. This is done after seeing the public's great enthusiasm and request that this book can be stored physically.
"There I realized, the physical version is not about selling, but about sustainability and wider access," he explained.
