Synopsis

The Pink Velvet Anthology is a representation of the maturing process of young womanhood. Seven chapters deep of non-fiction narratives including stories of sexual violence, healing, heart break, and spirituality. I cover many different topics from many different angles and I write about some of the things that my mentors & mother figures taught me and young ages. I find myself willing to pass that wisdom forward.
