Counting Sand: The 18th

Independent American author Riley Grace debuts her first poetry book: Counting Sand: The 18th, a quaint collection of poems she wrote from sixteen to eighteen about the trials of a young woman.

In her bold and raw poetry, Riley Grace, with vivacious language and alluring style, seeks the answers of her value and her place in the world. As this question evolves through her years, so will her poetry. Every few years, Riley Grace revisits her poetry from a younger age, revises, and adds them to her latest collection of new poetry. This book is particularly unique as the volumes age, so do her previous stories.

Counting Sand: The 18th is about an ongoing journey of finding the bitterness, anger, and sadness that roots in a young woman's heart, and conquering it.
