Elizabeth Smart Writing Memoir

Photobucket

Ten years after she was abducted, Elizabeth Smart is penning a memoir about the nine months she was held, often in chains, and raped almost daily.

Now married and a senior at Brigham Young University, Smart, 25, is co-writing her story with Chris Stewart, a Utah Congressman-elect.

"She has taken a professional outlook on this and is able to talk in an impressive way about these things frankly," Stewart said.

"She is not shying away from this story."

I have a mormon aunt who's almost 40 and unmarried... but that's mostly because she's unpleasant and up until last year, lived at home... and the first time she tried moving away from home, she came back within a month. She has issues.

But yeah.. I can imagine why you're friend feels down about that-- since most Mormon girls end up married & with babies in their early 20s.

yeah, I feel bad for her - mainly because she complains that there aren't eligible Mormon men over 25, but we live in a very non-Mormon area so not only is she older than the norm, she's removed from the community...I feel bad that she's an outcast in that part of her life.
