Overview

Volume 11: The Book of Lived is a grassroots anthology devoted to remembrance, inclusion, and love through publishing. Curated by Penny Authors, this volume gathers the voices of contributors across time, geography, and circumstance-some returning, some never having left, and some remembered in silence. Structured as a liturgical offering, the book unfolds through roll calls, dedications, testimonials, and anonymous poems-each page a vessel of lived experience. It is not merely a collection of writings, but a spiritual archive: a place where grief is honoured, joy is sanctified, and every contributor is held in reverence. This volume fulfils a sacred promise-to publish with love, to serve those who hear the calling, and to ensure that no voice is lost to forgetting. It is a testament to communal care, ethical memory, and the enduring power of words to champion the spirit. Whether you arrive as reader, witness, or kin, The Book of Lived welcomes you into its circle. May you find yourself here. Would you like a shorter version for the back cover or a more poetic rendering for promotional use? I can also help adapt this for your website or submission platforms.
