- The Shack in the Woods: Microbiographies, #1
1
How much trouble can two young kids get into when nobody is looking? A lot.Don and I were unlikely friends, both damaged souls from secrets nobody knew. One of our many adventures took us to a shack in the woods where nobody had ventured in too many years to count. We knew we needed to explore the place and were driven by an unexplained force, but we never imagined what we might find. While we both found lost history, and Don found adventure, what I found was much more precious. I found a piece of me, a passion for history, and a rediscovery of my soul. I learned through one adventure as a kid that no matter how bad things were, I still didn't want to die. Discovery of self can be one of life's greatest adventures.
- The Miller Miles: Microbiographies, #2

A saint was once asked "What is anger?" He replied that anger is a punishment that we give ourselves for someone else's mistake. Believe me, revenge is far worse. We all do things we aren't proud of. Some of us have done far worse than others. I was a rather troubled teen and grew into a troubled young adult. From sex to drugs, to love and lies, this adventure holds all that touches the lives of our nation's youth no matter what decade it might be. I was a teenage runaway, and as bad as that might be, I dragged others down that road with me. Eventually my friends betrayed me and I was left stranded in a strange city. It wouldn't be the last time that would happen in my life, but it was the last time in my life I actively sought (and achieved) revenge. Miller was completely caught off guard. To some extent, so was I. It was an adventure to a degree, a nightmare to live and a story that I'll never forget as long as I breathe.

"My name is Amanda Blackwood and I'm a survivor of human trafficking." Even now the words sound like fiction, especially as the horrors fade from recent memory. It's been 20 years since I escaped that fate, beating the odds. Most don't survive. I know that now, I didn't know that then. At the age of 19, my life took a drastic turn down a very dark path. I married a much older man in an attempt to escape my already dramatic life and was looking for a way out of trouble when the word "trouble" was completely redefined for me. Taken in by a young couple who then sold me like property to the highest bidder, my life changed completely. Suddenly I found myself locked away in a small room with no food, no water, no bathroom, and no company other that the screams of other trapped girls down the dark, deadly hallway. I had ample time to rethink my life. When I escaped, I didn't go back for the other girls whose screams haunt me even now.

"I've never seen a poetry book so clearly outlined to match every single emotion I've ever felt as a survivor of trauma. This book helped me to heal parts of me that I didn't even realize were broken. I've been inspired to not only continue my healing journey, but to start writing about it myself. Thank you, Amanda Blackwood." -- Jean Plagetti Trauma Recovery is always challenging, but one survivor of human trafficking discovered her strength in writing after her escape. This book, a collection of poetry from the mind and heart of a Human Trafficking Survivor, allows the reader to dive deep into the recesses of a victim's life as they transition from being a victim into being a survivor. Small moments of life become great moments of learning and love. Tiny moments of the unknown lead way to darkness and despair. True strength is needed to survive such a twisted fate.
