New Anthology Edited by Mary Simmerling, Ph.D.
We’ve Got Some Things to Say: Reshaping Narratives Around Sexual Violence begins with a simple but profound mission: giving survivors back their stories, in their own words.
Building on the work of We’ve Been Put Through Fire & Come Out Divine: Stories of Hope & Survival, this anthology tackles some of the harmful societal questions and myths that silence and shame survivors…With raw vulnerability and unflinching clarity, these writers transform their trauma into compelling narratives, using their words to challenge social and cultural assumptions and advocate for change. These pieces don’t just recount pain—they explore the complex paths toward healing, resilience, and reclaiming voice.
We’re celebrating the launch of this anthology with a virtual reading on January 25th. We hope to see you there!
Our latest issue of Peregrine Journal has launched!
Volume XXVII is themed around the issue of Caregiving, inspired by our Caregiver Project writing workshop series.
You can preview writing from the volume by watching the recordings of two celebratory launch readings we hosted on December 4th and December 8th.
