Hi! My name is Anna Lax Gatti and I am an aspiring author that was born and raised in West Tennessee.
My pronouns are she/her.
When I started my blog, it was originally named *ACLG* and then aclg13.com. It began on Facebook in March of 2020.
In December 2021, I revamped it into *The Woman Crush Wednesday.*
And then I revamped it into *The Manic Panic* in the fall of 2022.
And THEN it became *The Thirteenth Hour* in the fall of 2023.
Now… the name is TBD. Oops.

I graduated from the University School of Jackson in 2014 and obtained my Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Tennessee at Martin as well as graduated with honors, cum laude. My degree focus was studio art.

I am furthering my education and am on my way to becoming Anna, RN! I am in nursing school at Jackson State Community College and am set to graduate in December of 2025.

At just the age of 23, I became a widow. I am a huge advocate for relationship versus religion, self acceptance, self love, mental and physical health, transparency, realness, and the topic of sexuality. Through my trials and testimonies, I plan to share who God really is versus who He is made out to be by the actions of His people (myself included).

I am a huge Tennessee Volunteers fan as well as a huge Miami Dolphins fan. I am mum to two pups, Violet and Cooper, and two kitties, Mardi and Storm.

I believe I have two purposes in life.

Taking care of people both physically and emotionally: nursing and writing. <3

As one of my dear friends said, I love Jesus and I cuss a little. For real life talk, the art of savageness, and for the Taylor Swift of blogging, make sure you stay connected with my blog.

Oh, and be on the lookout for my upcoming novels.

Yours,

Anna
