A Home Within

A Home Within is a powerful anthology, discussing themes of body image, mental health, and self-love. With three overarching chapters - Lost, Searching, and Found - readers will follow CM Writer on a captivating, thought-provoking journey towards finding the home within ourselves.

for a home I know exists

in my skin,

my bones,

myself.

This is the journey

the home within.
