A &amp;nbsp;MONSTER LIKE ME is a story about self-acceptance and bullying and we celebrate this story and Wendy's personal story on My Messy Muse in honor of Children's Mental Health Awareness Month. Wendy S Swore lives on a farm with a corn maze and pumpkin patch that is home to her five kids, two dogs, two geese, seven peacocks, eleven ducks, nineteen cats, and two hundred thirty-seven chickens. She farms in the summers, writes in the winters, and would rather chew her leg off than eat something spicy.
