Overview

Letters From The Front is a collection of 32 poems that takes the reader from the first days of trauma recovery to the victories of regaining balance and sense of self. As the poems progress, healing progresses and is more complete with each finished stanza. Woefully little research has been done about the effects of complex post-traumatic stress and even less information flows forth from people in the thick of the fight. By publishing this book, the author hopes to inspire and inform, pulling back the curtains on battles often waged alone and in the dark, hidden from stigma and shame. Letters From The Front reminds readers that they are not alone and should never give up. Touching on themes of surviving indoctrination, abuse, chronic illness, loss, and mental health struggles including CPTSD, anorexia, anxiety, and depression, Letters From The Front shows us the battle from the first shot fired to the sounding bells of victory. Recovery is possible. Never give up. ""If we all tried to make other people's paths easy, our own feet would have a smooth, even place to walk on."" - Myrtle Reed

Author Information

Beck Duffield is a lot.Wife, mother, educator, business owner, vocalist, author, poet, and political activist, Beck Duffield J.D., LL.M believes it is incumbent upon poets to speak the uncomfortable truths most people find difficult to articulate. The ethos of Beck's poetry is the authentic exposure of messy emotional regulation and the organization of higher thought. Thereby, having witnessed these sloppy moments, those readers in the thick of their own battles will stop judging themselves and feel less alone. Beck is hoping that her work will give readers the strength and clear vision to evaluate their own spheres of influence. Stay safe out there, friends. Keep fighting the good fight. Christopher Duffield is an illustrator and world builder with over three decades of experience. His doodle-style pencil drawings grace the covers of books and the corners of love letters with the magic of soulful simplicity.
