Here's my author bio. I'm a successful peer-reviewed academic journal and textbook author who transitioned into a new genre.

Survivor. Scholar. Parent. Entrepreneur. Relentless truth-teller Eliza Grayson rips the mask off physical and emotional abuse, transforming lived trauma into explosive narrative nonfiction that reads like a psychological thriller. Trapped in a toxic relationship of power and control, her perpetrator convinced others she was unstable. STRIP MAUL. TRUTH BE TOLD exists because she refused to believe that lie. Drawing on a successful academic career rooted in published research, Grayson writes truth like evidence—exposing coercive control, financial entrapment, and the calculated psychology of domination with clinical precision and narrative force. What began on sticky notes pinned together in fragments—flashbacks without order—became clarity once she remembered. Then she wrote the story her abuser never wanted known. STRIP MAUL marks Grayson’s debut in narrative nonfiction: raw, relentless, and impossible to ignore. She writes like she’s cutting wires on a live bomb—decoding manipulation, exposing predators, and documenting escape with no padding and no mercy. The result is electric: immediate shock, lasting impact. This is not a memoir. It is a reckoning. A forensic autopsy of abuse and an unflinching account of survival as strategy, where the mind becomes the battleground and silence is no longer an option. Grayson’s work illuminates the hidden structures that keep victims trapped—and the resilience required to break free. Her story hits hard and lingers: the heart-pounding arc of a woman who refused to be erased. ISBN
