Nineteen writers share poems, prose, and short stories capturing the wonderful, the painful, and everything between.

It's nearly impossible to feel nothing about motherhood.

Each of us comes from a mother, in fact. We adore them, we resent them, we miss them, we are them.

This book of poems, prose, and short stories is a collection of words on all shades of motherhood. The wonderful, the painful, and everything between. Motherhood isn't a monolith, after all.

And it's almost never what you expect.
