I pulled up June 1st 2025 partially broke and homeless. I came by Greyhound from Pineville Louisiana a 26 hr ride. I had arranged to stay with a friend of mine. Things got spooky and super complicated so by August I was out and placed in a DV shelter in Jamaica Queens.     That lasted 180 days, in that time I wrote and published 4 books you can check them out here:  https://www.lulu.com/search?sortBy=RELEVANCE&page=1&q=Jodie+Spartz&pageSize=10&adult_audience_rating=00        I was an audience member for the Drew Berrymore Show I had VIP seating, check it out here: https://www.expresspassion4life.com/2025/09/i-was-on...

It's been a little over a month and again so much has happened. I feel like I'm moving out of survival mode. Last we spoke I was wondering where I was going to sleep next and wondering if  the place I interned at was going to ask me to come back to work there? Also wondering if I was going to get a job from this job fair coming up Thursday? The first two nights out of the respite I stayed at a hotel in Hell's kitchen for two days.
