On Sept 23, Fierce Ink Press released its new anthology Becoming Fierce: Teen Stories IRL (the IRL is “in real life”, now ya know). Twenty percent of proceeds go to help Kids Help Phone. Included in the collection is Chris Benjamin’s short story, “Cuisvé”, about his eye-opening, and heart starting, time in St. Lucia as a young man.
From the press release:
Each short deals with something the author struggled with during his or her teen years. The goal of the anthology is to let teens know that adults do understand what they’re going through and that it does get better.
