✦ WHY HE WRITES

Vincent lives with PTSD, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and depression. He does not hide this. It is the engine of everything he creates. The writing is confessional — not for shock, but because he believes a voice should always be known, even if it's only a line or two.

His sister once told him: "Vinny, you're never seen, but you're always heard."That line became the framing of his memoir — and in many ways the thesis of his entire body of work. He writes for the people who feel invisible. He writes so they know someone else has been there too.

SPECTRUM NEWS 1 WORCESTER · JULY 28, 2021 · BY VALERIE BELL

Reporter Valerie Bell traveled to East Longmeadow to profile 24-year-old Vinnie Magnani following the July 2021 release of An Inconvenient Attachment. The piece centered on Vincent's experience living with PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and depression — and how those experiences became the raw material of his writing.

"Nothing too professional. That is the whole point of my book. You see the outline of it, like the writing — it is like I wrote it on a piece of paper."

He framed the work not as a love story alone, but as a self-help story — a reminder to anyone suffering that they are not alone.
