A Quiet Refusal to Disappear - now published

Hello lovely readers,

I wanted to share a little celebration with you and I couldn't wait until next month's newsletter!

I'm incredibly honoured to have my poetic prose collection:

"A Quiet Refusal to Disappear"

is now published in Ogygia: Revista Literária, a Portuguese literary magazine dedicated to amplifying women's voices.

To see my words alongside the work of so many talented writers is both humbling and deeply exciting.

This is a personal piece, written as a series of reflections and letters:

To My Mother. To the Good Girl I Became. To the Man I Chose. To the Woman I Became in His Bed. To the Life I Lived. To Myself.

Writing it was both challenging and deeply moving.

Seeing it in print is something I'll always treasure.

If you'd like to read it, you'll find my original words in English alongside a beautiful Portuguese translation by Avelina Ferreira.

This latest issue of

Ogygia: Revista Literária: Mágoas, Dores e outros Dissabores

is available as a digital download from Moonwater Editions (link below),

FREE Digital edition:

https://pub.marq.com/OGYGIA3/.

And in paperback format through Amazon (.com and .es).

Thank you for walking this writing path with me as I continue to write more poetic prose, poetry and fiction.

Your encouragement, kindness and belief in my work have given me the confidence to keep writing the stories that matter most to me.

Thank you.

I hope A Quiet Refusal to Disappear speaks to something within you too.

With love and gratitude,

Sally x
