A Bouquet of Daisies

Megan Alice is a seventeen-year-old poet and performer based in Southern California. Having written poetry since the age of fourteen, Alice has found the art of stringing words together to be healing for both writer and reader. As a feminist, Alice writes about the injustices she experiences as a woman, and she donates a portion of her book proceeds to the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Alice is currently working on her second book and has several novellas in development. She always seeks ways to challenge her writing and creativity. Megan Alice's debut collection, A Bouquet of Daisies, is a collection of poetry and prose exploring the heartbreak and healing found in relationships of all kinds. Centered around the theme of human connection, she also touches on the battle against mental illness, the stigma that follows the diagnosis, emotional abuse, sexual assault, and misogyny. Alice puts the spotlight on dark topics to bring forth an awareness around pain rather than shy away from it. A Bouquet of Daisies concludes with the reassuring message that you can pluck the dark moments out of your past to bask in your future and inner power.
