About this ebook
After a first lifetime of travel and books and wandering and culture and art and family and friends, and the growth of a voice, this author lost herself. Just South of the Solar Plexus, a memoir, is a story about finding voice and power, and then abandoning them in the red dust of the road when the world made it too hard to find her place. The place for her voice. So many of us—especially women—give up our voices, leaving who we are, and our power to change the world to die—unaware that we die with them. After a marriage, a baby, cancer, facing life and death, this writer reclaimed what she had abandoned: her voice and soul.
Mariah L Schwarz
Mariah L Schwarz started writing when she was 14 years old and hasn’t stopped. After studying poetry with Charles Simic in college, she moved to New York City and began publishing poems in poetry reviews. Not long after, she lost her way as a writer and in the world. Wandering across the States and around the world; wondering with books, people, art and cultures; and a brush with mortality during motherhood returned her to herself. Cancer saved her life. She is herself again, publishing the memoir that tells that story, and writing all the other poems, essays and stories waiting to be told.
