african-american award-winning consciousness fiction inspiration literary memoir sedona southern spirituality visionary wisdom women

Chattering Canyons is the prologue to my debut, award-winning, visionary novel, Trusting the Currents. 

I never expected to be a writer. One day, I began  hearing the whispers of Addie Mae Aubrey, a Southern, African-American woman, asking that I tell her story. She took me on a journey that transformed everything I became and led to my spiritual awakening. Trusting the Currents is the story she told me. Through words and resonance, it guides readers into their own truth and transformation.

Trusting the Currents has won six literary awards, including the 2014 Nautilus Gold Award in Fiction, 2015 IPPY Gold Medal in Visionary Fiction, 2015 National Indie Excellence Gold Medal in Visionary Fiction, and the 2015 International Book Awards Gold Medal in Visionary Fiction. It also won as a Finalist in the 2015 Next Generation Indie Book Awards in Inspirational Fiction and Honorable Mention in Spirituality at the 2015  Los Angeles Book Festival.All Rights Reserved

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

The Man In The Woods (Virgin Killer #1) by The_RebelAngel

**3RD PLACE WINNER OF THE 2017 CRAYON AWARDS** Third place winner of the 2017 Lilac Awards From the beginning, I knew what I was in for. I knew that this scenario would end one way or another. I wasn't stupid. Nobody put a gun to my head and forced me to play this game of cat-and-mouse. But I will say, I never pictured that this would occur. I stood there, my brother's silver Smith and Wesson in my hands, directing it at my deadly target. My eyes bore into his, his indicating no sign of emotion, while mine were filled with horror. "It's you," I said, my voice unsteady. He took another step closer to me, his hands in the pockets of his trench coat. A malicious grin formed upon his face. His signature expression. "Surprise," he replied before sauntering forward to finish what he started six months ago. ♠♠♠ Six months after Skyler Williamson is abducted and tortured in the woods by a serial killer, she deals with the repercussions of her unfortunate ordeal. Crippling anxiety, the results of unknown misfortunes, bubble up to the surface and rest in the foreground of her mind. And Skyler's prescribed medication can only help to a certain extent. Repressed memories of the past collide with the present, causing Skyler to be unable to distinguish what is real and what is not. When two teenage girls turn up dead, Skyler finds it is up to her to catch the man who's behind all of this... Even if this means trading her own life for the answers she so desperately needs. © The_RebelAngel 2016 STARTED: 01/01/2016 ENDED: 06/21/2017 Cover created by @The_RebelAngel on Canva

Out From Within the Shadow by FromWithinJoElliott

Introduction In March 2013, following the completion of From Within The Shadow, I reached the point of feeling and being like I'd found my way out from within the shadow. With each step it felt like I was opening like a flower: Blossoming, growing stronger, taller, daily. Pushing outwards, the seeds, to attract the honey bee, like a chest being puffed out. Petals like eyes, seeing the world, feeling the wind, the sun, the rain. Dancing, strutting, feeling a part of the world, stretching outwards to reach my full potential. Out From Within the Shadow I now stand out from within the shadow tall, upright and in full glow behind me now is where it is only to visit as I reminisce. Sweeter memories can now be found as all the tangles have been unwound and freedom is now the path for me and with my new eyes the world I see.

Morph [EDITING] || Wattys 2017 Winner by hana_andromeda

"They took my sister. Now I'm taking her back." Seventeen years ago, humans started developing supernatural abilities. Comic books came true as the first person flew, created fire, mind-read. The world entered a new age where people who could do special things were revered and admired. That all changed when one man lost control of his power and unleashed a huge explosion in a crowded shopping centre, killing over a thousand others. A series of fights involving superhumans broke out, resulting in the destruction of multiple cities and hundreds upon hundreds of further lives lost. The government began hunting down those extraordinary people with the assistance of a specialised unit: trained in recognising different abilities. Suddenly powers became something scary, uncontrollable and dangerous, that nobody wanted to own up to having. Seventeen years after the Explosion, Amelie Rose Carmichael is the daughter of the man who is in charge of hunting down and imprisoning these people. She enjoys a comfortable life, protected from any threats against her. But when Amelie develops an ability without warning, she must try to keep it hidden from her family, her friends, and above all her father. Can she keep a secret? Will she use her powers to help the rebel organisation that has approached her? And what secrets are the people around her hiding?

Lucky! by Emrys_Noah

Quote Things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end, if not always in the way we expect. Now where to begin? I'm Enid Lloyd. I have a sister and two loving parents, note my sarcasm. My parents never showed any care or love my way. They were always addicted to Esme, my older sister. As usual, we took a trip to our hometown, London for the winter. I didn't expect it to turn out like that. Really, I didn't expect it!

A Love Beyond Names by Vane_Matru

How did we get to this? Or rather, when? After you, I realized that time, circumstances, or simply us, because we are not perfect beings, but we try to be the best version of ourselves day by day, can be destined to be together and last as long as we are willing. Nostalgia flooded my body when I passed by our quiet, lonely, and green park, the one that welcomed us when we were together, just you and me. I saw that old, worn-out bench sitting empty; it was impossible not to remember the afternoons we spent there, laughing, dreaming, enjoying each other's company. From the moment I saw you that coincidental day, I knew that love had finally arrived in my life, and I will continue to stand by your side as your wife until my body can no longer go on.

What She Left Behind ✔️ by neurotick

"I'm assuming that little speech was meant for me?" "It was meant for everyone." "But mostly me. Is it because I called her selfish earlier? Are you still hung up on that?" "I'm not hung up on anything, Gemma." "Then why would you go up there and say that?" I demand, my voice rising above a whisper. "Of all days, why would you choose today to publicly humiliate me?" "Today isn't about you, Gemma," Bowie says, catching me by surprise. "Today is about Raelyn, and the fact that we all failed her." ----------- 𝕲𝖊𝖒𝖒𝖆 𝕭𝖊𝖆𝖚𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖙's life is turned upside down the day she gets the call that her best friend, Raelyn, took her own life. No note, no explanation, just an empty bottle of pills atop a mountain of unanswered questions. As far as Gemma knew, Raelyn wasn't depressed. Why did she do this? Why did she kill herself? While searching for answers, she forms a bond with Evangeline, Raelyn's six-year-old daughter. Gemma soon learns that Raelyn didn't just leave behind a daughter, though. She also left a stack of secrets so high that Gemma fears she never knew her best friend at all. She's so desperate to find out the truth that she may get more than she bargained for. After all, you can't un-ring a bell. BOOK ONE IN THE RAE OF LIGHT SERIES. Copyright © 2019 Briana Eliza.

Chameleon ✔️ by CandaceMJ

I have three secrets. 1. I'm in the witness protection program. I witnessed my mother's murder when I was eight years old, and now the murderer is after me. 2. I can read minds. Or not "read" them... not exactly. But I can feel them. Every emotion has a color. An aura, as I call it. And I can feel those auras. I can feel the color of one's thoughts. 3. I can't feel Elijah Whitney's aura. [ COMPLETED - 1.28.16 ] [ LATEST REVISION - 8.17.19 ] [ SEQUEL COMING FALL 2019 ]
