Today my name is colorful. Yesterday my name was dead souls. Tomorrow my name will be lively spirits. My friends think my name is fire. The police think my name is burden. My parents think my name is symphony. Secretly I know my name is anything I want it to be. Paint Me Like I Am is a collection of poems by teens who have taken part in writing programs run by a national nonprofit organization called WritersCorps. To read the words of these young people is to hear the diverse voices of teenagers everywhere. Included are a foreward by acclaimed poet Nikki Giovanni, an essay from Kevin Powell, another poet associated with WritersCorps, and writing tips from WritersCorps instructors. WritersCorps was started in 1994 to help at-risk youth in three American urban centers: San Francisco, Washington, DC, and New York City (the Bronx). Thousands of children and teenagers have since benefited from finding creative expression through writing.

These students were equipped with Writers' Notebooks and they learned why it is important to write for the rest of their lives. All of the writings that are in this book were written by the students and staff members who participated in our writing sessions. This is the very first published anthology from Passages Academy- Bronx Hope.

"Haunting ... teems with raw emotion, and McCullough deftly captures the experience of learning to behave in a male-driven society and then breaking outside of it."—The New Yorker "I will be haunted and empowered by Artemisia Gentileschi's story for the rest of my life."—Amanda Lovelace, bestselling author of the princess saves herself in this one A William C. Morris Debut Award Finalist 2018 National Book Award Longlist Her mother died when she was twelve, and suddenly Artemisia Gentileschi had a stark choice: a life as a nun in a convent or a life grinding pigment for her father's paint. She chose paint. By the time she was seventeen, Artemisia did more than grind pigment. She was one of Rome's most talented painters, even if no one knew her name. But Rome in 1610 was a city where men took what they wanted from women, and in the aftermath of rape Artemisia faced another terrible choice: a life of silence or a life of truth, no matter the cost. He will not consume my every thought. I am a painter. I will paint. Joy McCullough's bold novel in verse is a portrait of an artist as a young woman, filled with the soaring highs of creative inspiration and the devastating setbacks of a system built to break her. McCullough weaves Artemisia's heartbreaking story with the stories of the ancient heroines, Susanna and Judith, who become not only the subjects of two of Artemisia's most famous paintings but sources of strength as she battles to paint a woman's timeless truth in the face of unspeakable and all-too-familiar violence. I will show you what a woman can do. ★"A captivating and impressive."—Booklist, starred review ★"Belongs on every YA shelf."—SLJ, starred review ★"Haunting."—Publishers Weekly, starred review ★"Luminous."—Shelf Awareness, starred review

My life stunk. I had never gotten a break. If it could go wrong, it had gone wrong. I was on the fast track to nowhere... Then I met Al. As one man approaches fifty, he takes a look back at the years riddled with disappointment, heartache, unfulfilled dreams, and hopelessness. He's a prisoner to his own existence, allowing fear and his victim mentality to keep him from pursuing the life he's always wanted. But just when it seems that each day is the same monotonous routine, he meets Al and has an unexpected encounter that will turn his life upside down. When Al offers him The Key to his mansion, this man must decide if it's a risk worth taking. Is it really free, or are there strings attached to this seemingly too-good-to-be-true offer? Who is this mysterious Al? What secrets does his house hold, and why is he trying to give it away? In his new book, The Key, John W. Turner takes readers on tour of this extraordinary home, using this allegory of the Father's house to reveal the invitation extended to each and every person. Readers will be spellbound as they too explore the rooms of the mansion, discovering the reality of God's character and the blessings he wants to bestow, if we allow him.
