Informal greeting
Now that we've got the formalities out of the way, my name is Allen Minor. I am an avid mental health awareness advocate and spoken word performer under the pen name A.S. Minor. I travel the country trying to bring that awareness on stages, in classrooms, hospitals, and on my YouTube channel. Articles and other works pertaining to my work can be found in section entitled, "Press."
As a spoken word poet, I am always looking for opportunities to spread the message of Post-Traumatic Growth to the general population, regardless of the venue. For information about booking, or to just reach out, please head over to the section entitled, "Contact."
“[A.S. Minor] invites us to take a journey into the depths of his mind. What we find is not only insight into mental health issues such as Borderline Personality Disorder and the impact of Post-Traumatic Stress, but that life brings both ups and downs, and that we must embrace both to live it to the fullest. [His] work is the definition of Post-Traumatic Growth.”
