On Creating Kandice: A Poetic Journey To Spirituality & Self-Discovery, chronicles in lyrical form, the story of my life from approximately ages sixteen to twenty-two years of age. The individual poems were organized to read as a story - the story of my struggle with the maturation process; acceptance of the responsibility that comes with the transition into adulthood and specifically womanhood; how I learned to wield its numerous powers; the pain and peace that comes with the submission of one’s life to Christ; and ultimately, the balance that must be found in order to succeed as a young adult Christian in this world.This book is certainly appropriate for the young adult (ages 16-24) who is trying to figure out who they are and what they want out of life. I see this work as being useful to the adult (ages 25-34) who is dealing with the life challenge(s) of reaching that more 'settled' state in life; who is seeking self-improvement, a sense of purpose and essentially spiritual direction. Finally, I even see the mature adult (ages 35+), who may have already established and be actively solidifying day-by-day his/her life with Christ, reading this work.'How wonderful to discover the new and refreshing voice of Kandice Jacobs-Armstrong. On Creating Kandice: A Poetic Journey To Spirituality & Self-Discovery is definitely new wine in new bottles. How poignant to travel the difficult road of life only to find that Light that lights up all our lives. We all are certainly wishing Kandice continued success on her Poetic Journey.'Nikki GiovanniPoet

    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
