Bleeding Ink: Fire and Bloom

Some fires don't destroy - they clear the ground for what comes next.

In her second collection, Amethyst Coffman returns with poetry that has been forged rather than merely survived. Where Bleeding Ink: I Bleed to Stay Alive was raw and unfiltered - words bled out just to make it through the day - Fire and Bloom is what happens when that same instinct is honed into something crafted, deliberate, and whole.

This is a book about burning away the old self to make room for the new. Fire is the drive that never let her stop; Bloom is the growth that came after. Together, they trace a journey from surviving to becoming - confessional, scene-first, and unafraid to leave things unresolved, because real healing rarely ties itself in a bow.

Readers of the first collection will recognize the voice. But this time, it isn't just bleeding - it's blooming.
