Not The Way You Expect: A Collection of Words on Motherhood

An anthology of words from 19 writers around the topic of motherhood. It’s nearly impossible to feel nothing about motherhood. Each of us comes from a mother, in fact. We adore them, we resent them, we miss them, we are them. This book of poems, prose, and short stories is a collection of words on all shades of motherhood. The wonderful, the painful, and everything between. Motherhood isn’t a monolith, after all. And it’s almost never what you expect.
