Mad Are We

Zan Kershaw

Mad Are We is a story about first connection, first love and first loss, through the eyes of an autistic teenage girl. 
 
When teenage Imogen meets Sabrina, something shifts. She experiences a kind of friendship that feels real in a way she hasn’t known before. For once, she isn’t constantly second-guessing herself — what to say, how to respond, how to be. Slowly, the mask Imogen has carefully built to navigate the world begins to loosen, and parts of herself she usually keeps hidden start to surface. 
 
Mad Are We explores the loneliness and disconnection that can come from sensory overwhelm and trying to follow unspoken social rules, alongside the intensity and relief of finally feeling understood. It is a story about first connection, first love and first loss.

The poet, with a delicate touch, explores the intricate intricacies of life's journey. Through the ebb and flow of their words, we are transported to a realm where silence speaks volumes and darkness holds secrets. It is a place where the mundane becomes profound, and everyday moments are infused with profound meaning.

Blossom: Unfolding the Heart

Bethany Livers

Blossom: Unfolding the Heart, is a poetry book about delving deeper into the feelings that have become normalized and ignored. It's common to acknowledge a feeling, thinking it will go away; but sometimes it never does. This poetry book also goes deep into the struggle to be Black in America in this day and age, and we still have a lot of work to do. To sit and listen to what your mind is telling you is way more important than playing it cool. In Blossom, I hope to show teens and young adults that you can have feelings about situations and you do not always have to fit a perfect mold of what society wants. I hope Blossom makes you smile, laugh, think, feel appreciated, look at the world a little more clearly, and even understand why some other people act the way they do.
