The Unbroken Horizon, out Aug 15 '23! Two women, a century apart, both needing to put the ghosts of the past to rest to move forward.

@LisaOz6 The Time of the Butterflies, Julia Alvarez (the Dominican Republic). The Dovekeepers, Alice Hoffman (the Roman Empire), A Fine Balance, Rohinton Mistry (India 1970s)... All these books had great stories and writing, and I learned about (part of) the countries' histories

I'm so excited 2 of my poems are being published in the “Hidden in Childhood” anthology, along with 150+ amazing poets. Edited by Gabriela Milton & published by Literary Revelations, this collection releases in late January. So grateful to you for all you do, @shortprose1 https://t.co/3XdUogJ60z

@blsamaddar I had to read it a second time, carefully, to get it, but when I did it really came through. Absolutely brilliant. So well written. Have you read six characters in search of an author by Pirandello (a 1920s play)? It reminded me of that

@matthewgeddes70 That sounds fun. I have read some romances that flip flop between the woman and the man's pov (some 1st some 3rd). I like having both. Have you read The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara kingsolver? That flipped between five different first person pov.

@AriellaFeiner I absolutely loved The Vanishing Half. Have you read Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi? I assume you have, but just in case... it's amazing
