Overview

32 Stories. One Truth. We remember by telling. What if every headline carried more than facts? What if it carried the weight of someone's soul? It Ended By Beginning is not just a short story collection, it's a confrontation. Across 32 haunting, visceral tales, this book peels back the skin of ordinary lives to reveal the grief, betrayal, envy, pride, justice, and silence lurking underneath. Through the eyes of a lone journalist, one who prints not only the news but the hidden truths people bury. The collection unfolds like a newspaper written in blood and memory. Every story is a headline. Every voice is a testimony. And every truth is one we'd rather look away from. But here, there is no looking away. No closure. No easy endings. Just the lingering echo of what happens when pain is left to fester and the chilling reminder that stories don't end; they haunt. Perfect for readers drawn to the raw, the unsettling, and the unforgettable, It Ended By Beginning is for those who believe storytelling is more than escape, it's the most dangerous form of truth. ""It is a newspaper's duty to print the news and raise hell."" - Wilbur F. Storey

Author Information

Hailing from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Makitia Thompson is a storyteller who dives headfirst into the human experience, examining the fragile line between triumph and tragedy, the cost of fame, the ache of abandonment, and the shadowed corners of desire. For over a decade, she has crafted fictional autobiographies and interview-style narratives that peel back the polished surfaces of her characters, revealing the truths they'd rather keep buried. As the founder of Minds In Design, Thompson has built a creative hub dedicated to bold, boundary-pushing storytelling. Her company blends literature, visual art, and immersive world-building to challenge audiences to confront uncomfortable realities and discover self-reflection through honesty. Her oil and acrylic paintings often echo the emotional weight of her books, creating a visual bridge between her art forms. Starting her writing journey at just 11 years old, Thompson has spent years refining her craft, always circling back to one question: How do we rise above our past to become who we were meant to be?
