PUNK GOSPEL® IS A BODY OF WORK
Stories that defy erasure and rise.
It begins with THE BONES I DIDN’T BURY: A Punk Gospel in Seven Parts. Structured around the vision of the prophet Ezekiel’s Valley of Dry Bones, THE BONES I DIDN’T BURY is an unflinching work of literature about survival, motherhood, and sacred defiance. Raw, reverent, and cinematic, it carries readers through seven movements—from the valley to the rising—blending neurosurgery, disability advocacy, and the haunting choreography of faith.
BONES is the first prophecy. Punk Gospel is the movement to come.
THE AUTHOR
KRISTIN DILLON is a writer and advocate whose work sits at the intersection of story, justice, and systems. . She spent over a decade shaping brand expression for international travel companies. After surviving neurosurgery and a corporate layoff in the same season, she turned to writing as testimony, where survival, motherhood, and power collide.
She is the founder of It Can’t Be Zero, a disability equity initiative confronting the systemic exclusion of disabled children from extracurricular life. Her work has catalyzed policy reform, shaped inclusive programming, and challenged institutions to witness.
Her voice—what she calls “punk gospel”—fuses story, scripture, and manifesto, transforming systemic critique into prophecy, mercy and art.
She lives in Detroit with her husband and their son, whose joyful resilience shapes the rhythm of her days and the architecture of her work.
The Bones I Didn’t Bury is her first book.
