Why I Changed the Title of My Memoir
From Puzzle Girl to The Babydoll Chronicles
For years, my memoir carried the working title Puzzle Girl — a name that reflected the way I spent my life gathering pieces of myself after trauma, loss, and betrayal. It was a story about trying to fit together the fragments.
But something shifted as I wrote deeper into my truth.
I kept hearing my father’s voice —
the way he used to look at me and call me “Babydoll.”
It was his nickname for me from the time I was a little girl, wrapped in innocence, wonder, and light.
That name wasn’t about broken pieces.
It was about love, belonging, and the part of me that survived everything.
So I listened.
And the memoir transformed.
The Babydoll Chronicles honors:
✨ the tenderness my father saw in me
✨ the girl who kept going
✨ the woman who rose despite it all
✨ the truth that my story is not about damage
but about resilience, divinity, and becoming
This title isn’t just a name.
It’s a reclamation.
A remembering.
A return.
A Renewal.
It’s the story of the girl he loved ~
and the woman I became.
