Read what some (really nice) people are saying about my book.

Purchase here for Kindle or paperback.

perhaps it’s both is a collection of raw, feminist poetry about trauma, self-rediscovery and autonomy. The book is divided into two halves--- The Suffering/The Knowing and The Healing/The Loving. These passages carefully focus on abuse, rape, sexuality, mental illness and femininity, as well as healing through anger, self-love and acceptance, growth and community. Some portions of this book contain mature content and may be triggering.

“reaching through the dunes to grab my cold, dense, heavy heart back and forth, back and forth in front of my eyes, in through the nose, out of the mouth passed between my fingers”

[katewestwrites]

"i hope this book found you well at the start, but it probably didn’t #metoo

what you are experiencing right now is the act of collective healing from girlhood this phase of life will never end until you die”
