Here are some important updates about my poetry book on living with mental and chronic illness, originally titled Still, I Rise.
First, I changed the title to I Will Rise.
I made that decision because I was not loving the similarity to Maya Angelou’s poetry book And Still, I Rise.
The book also features poetry that makes reference to rising after a low, and I felt the futuristic I Will Rise fit the theme better.
This is the new cover!
I self-published this as an ebook through Lulu. I did sign up for global distribution, but the release on other platforms is still pending.
For now, you can get it in the Lulu bookstore as an epub.
I’m going to make the epub available here on my website within the next week, along with two bookish products that I’m hoping you’ll love, both inspired by the book.
You will also be able to find those items (not the book) on my kofi.
It may take an additional several weeks for my book to be available on other platforms like Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Google Books, and Apple Books, but it will arrive in all those places.
Hard copies are coming! They will be available for purchase as-is, personalized and signed, or as part of a book box with additional goodies! You’ll be able to get them exclusively here on my website, so if you’re interested, be sure to keep an eye out.
