Smashed Peaches: A Creative Anthology About Surviving Violence
SMASHED PEACHES IS A UNIQUE ACTIVIST ANTHOLOGY ALL ABOUT EXPERIENCING AND SURVIVING VIOLENCE.

This diverse collection contains uncensored poetry, flash fiction, short stories, diary entries, scripts and essays written by an array of talented women and non-binary people who have courageously shared their harrowing personal experiences. Raw, vulnerable, and incredibly moving, it offers a therapeutic space and a shared platform of survival and solace. Violence, discrimination, harassment, and the threat of it, are regrettably all too often a part of women and non-binary people's lives, irrespective of nationality, class, ethnicity, sexuality, faith, or gender. At its heart, it is a shared problem of humanity, and the global contributors, hailing from the UK, Malaysia, India, Romania, Tunisia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Ukraine, and the UAE, are all unified in their cry for worldwide change. This anthology aims to empower readers by

sharing traumatic experiences with the world, and celebrating the bravery, vulnerability, and honesty of all who have contributed to this powerful collection. Each entry represents the voices of those who have been systematically

stifled for too long, shedding a beacon of light on a matter so often buried in the dark. It is, at once, a call for action and a message of hope.

About the Author

Molly is completing a Publishing Master's at the University of Exeter, with an undergraduate degree in law. Her legal background, personal experiences and sense of moral justice provide the foundations for her feminist activism, hoping to raise awareness for victims of violence and social injustice everywhere. Alongside her studies, she advocates for the rights and safety of women (cis and trans) and non-binary people through her connection with Devon Rape Crisis and More Positive Me, and through her art and written word. Based in the UAE, she can be found reading and writing vivid poetry in her free time and is an enthusiastic emerging writer and editor, celebrating the power of language and the cathartic, healing and community building benefits of the written word.Molly has successfully published numerous thought-provoking pieces of poetry and fiction, often surrounding the taboo topics that society shies from. Molly has worked for Lurid Editions, Exclamat!on, Enigma and Riptide as an assistant editor, and Nord Anglia International School Dubai in social media and communications.
