First Draft of a Man - Paperback

First Draft of a Man charts the raw, intimate evolution of a young man in the space between who he's been and who he hopes to become. Spanning Lynch's early twenties to his early thirties, these poems navigate the turbulence of mental health, the ache of love and heartbreak, and the quiet disillusionment that shadows early adulthood.

As Lynch searches for purpose, self-esteem, and solid ground, each piece becomes a sketch -honest, and necessary. What emerges is a portrait in progress: a man learning to trust his voice, claim his worth, and step with growing confidence into the shape of his own life.

A collection for anyone who has ever questioned their path, First Draft of a Man is both a mirror and a milestone; an ode to becoming.
