Janet Marie Waldrep began writing from her heart at the early age of 11. As a victim of incest and childhood sexual assault, she found writing poems helped to ease the pain and facilitate her healing and recovery process. As such, she felt compelled to compile this collection of her own poems. Marie was awarded the Editor’s Choice Award in January 2004 for outstanding achievement in poetry by poetry.com and the International Library of Poetry for her poem “Still I Cry.” She has created a web site called The Mighty Phoenix with information to help promote awareness and healing of all sexual abuse.
