Our bodies bear witness to wounds that can be invisible to the undiscerning eye, and we may not see the blood oozing from the flesh. Still, those invisible wounds bleed pain, grief, anxiety, shame, anger, and other emotional fluids that require more than an antiseptic wipe to clean. In Scarry Stories Tales from the Healed Side of Brokenness, diverse writers share stories that bear the markings of various wounds. Whether it’s from an abrasive relationship, a puncturing rape, a lacerative murder, the incision of insanity, an amputation by death, or other wound entry points, the scars remain to tell their stories. They whisper their pains, shout their victories, and leave roadmaps as evidence of the healing process. We invite you along on the journey to the healed side of brokenness!

Scarr Stories - Tales from the Healed Side of Brokenness

Based on a true story, My Name Makes Me feel Special is about Sharifa (author and illustrator). Being teased in school about having a different name, it made her feel ashamed, frustrated and alone. Sharifa hated her name, but when she found out the meaning of her unique name, she started gaining confidence to say; my name makes me feel special. Every child's name should make them feel special, especially if it's unique.
