Hey, Yuri

Hey Yuri,

When I left Pennsylvania to start a new life in LA, I had more emotional baggage than I had suitcases.

I suppose that's the story of my life. And weirdly, that's the story I choose to tell. It's full of double chocolate caramel brownies, street photography, gummy bears, and too much coffee. There's laughter, panic attacks, severed hands, and too much coffee. You'll get to meet Charlie-that's me, hi!-Jacky, Cameron, too many Joshes to count, Gus and Zoey. And coffee.

And you, of course, Yuri. Because without you, there wouldn't be any story at all.

Love,

C.

Hey, Yuri by Rory C. Ford is a funny, tender, and deeply human novel about starting over when you have come to forget who you are.

Told through warm, funny, and painfully honest entries, it is a story about starting over, building yourself from scratch, falling apart, falling in love (with people and with dreams), and wanting more from life than you've ever had before, without knowing what "more" even looks like. More importantly, it is about discovering that love does not always look the way you expect-but it always changes you for the better.

Perfect for fans of character-driven fiction, Hey, Yuri is a novel for anyone who's ever wanted more-and had no idea where to find it. It is a love letter to reinvention, to friendship, to small joys-and to the one voice that never leaves you: your own.
