Hi, I'm Don English.
Author of Enlightenment of Evil
Thank you for being here.
For most of my life, I kept my childhood a secret. Like many survivors, I believed silence was safer than telling the truth. Eventually, I realized that sharing my story might help someone else feel less alone.
Enlightenment of Evil is more than my memoir. It's a story of surviving trauma, finding hope, and discovering that healing is possible.
When I recorded the audiobook, I knew it had to be in my own voice. Every chapter is narrated by the person who lived it, creating an experience that's honest, deeply personal, and cinematic.
This website is where I'll share the story behind the story, behind-the-scenes moments from the audiobook, and the mission that continues to grow from it.
I'm grateful you're here, and I hope something you find reminds you that your story isn't over.
