Reflections

Featuring 13 short stories and 8 nonfiction essays written in the last 15 years by award-winning author Charity Marie, Reflections is an intimate collection that shines a light on modern life through a writer's view. At the end of each piece is an Author's Reflection sharing Charity Marie's unique perspectives, influences, and experiences that led to the work. Rarely do readers have an opportunity to glimpse deep inside a writer's mind to better understand their literature. 



Many of the pieces in the collection have been previously published in award-winning magazines or anthologies, but a number of the pieces are being released for the first time.



The collection includes Stop the World, a nonfiction essay that won Best Essay in 2019, Alone, previously published in award-winning Duck Soup magazine, Seeking Redemption, Metamorphosis into Mom (previously featured in a regional parenting column), Deuces, Life & Truth at a Dinner Party (unpublished), and many more. The book is great for casual readers, or as a coffee table book to share with friends, clients, and more.
