She had also shared a series of pictures on Instagram with a long caption that read, "The Tortured Poets Department. An anthology of new works that reflect events, opinions, and sentiments from a fleeting and fatalistic moment in time—one that was both sensational and sorrowful in equal measure. This period of the author’s life is now over; the chapter is closed and boarded up. There is nothing to avenge; there are no scores to settle once wounds have healed. And upon further reflection, a good number of them turned out to be self-inflicted. This writer is of the firm belief that our tears become holy in the form of ink on a page. Once we have told our saddest story, we can be free of it. And then all that’s left behind is the tortured poetry.
