Living and Writing W/Tourettes-Naval Veteran Kristof Morrow

11/08/23 • 1 min

Kristof Morrow Navy veteran, author of The Second Sun, and award-winning journalist living and working with crippling Tourette’s syndrome. I’m a veteran, author, and journalist who’s sold over 1200 copies of my debut book, “The Second Sun,” after going viral on TikTok in June. Growing up, I was the third born but the first to graduate high school. My parents viciously abused me. They both have suffered from some form of addiction. I taught myself to write while serving in the US Navy as a Corpsman right after high school, and after leaving, I learned a University education wasn't for me, despite winning the highest award for short fiction and poetry at two different colleges in their annual creative writing contests. While living in Louisiana, a film director hired me to help complete his script, and got to work on a film set. I became an EMT around the age of 23, then a 911 dispatcher at 26 before earning, by audition, a job at a newspaper. I was 27 years old and won awards from two Texas Press Associations for feature writing and photography. Amidst this time and in earlier years, I would exchange letters with Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Robert Olen Butler.

Biography Chief Foot Officer/Owner of From the Ground Up Physiotherapy My name is Greg Stern and I am the owner of From the Ground Up Physiotherapy. I help people get to the root cause of their pain by teaching people to move their entire body in new ways to wake up dormant muscles and movement patterns. Rather than solely focusing on the site of pain, I teach the body to work and give the site of pain a chance to recover, as it now can work together with the body rather than against it. With From the Ground Up, my chief mission is to help guide people through their own path of self-discovery on their health journeys and guide people to not only be pain-free but to thrive in their everyday lives.
