By Dakota Warren

On Sun Swallowing is a sweet and bloody collection of poetry, prose and journal extracts, dancing in the spaces between girlhood and godhood, satin and switchblades, salvation and damnation. Warren navigates her youth and all things soft, dreamy and delicate - drenched in gasoline and set ablaze. Her sharp lyricism and cutthroat vulnerability dares you to haunt your ghosts back; to relish in duality, dismantle dichotomy and exist as yourself; deliciously undefinable.Think: Philosophy between cotton sheets, existentialism cross-legged on the shower floor, cheap cigarettes, even cheaper wine, and an oath to reach hell by midnight and be home in time for work in the morning.On Sun Swallowing is Dakota Warren's debut poetry collection. The first edition of this title can also be purchased from purenowhere.com, where it is independently published, printed and distributed.

But for Victoria Jones, it has been more useful in communicating feelings like grief, mistrust and solitude. After a childhood spent in the foster care system, she is unable to get close to anybody, and her only connection to the world is through flowers and their meanings. Now eighteen, Victoria has nowhere to go, and sleeps in a public park, where she plants a small garden of her own. When her talent is discovered by a local florist, she discovers her gift for helping others through the flowers she chooses for them. But it takes meeting a mysterious vendor at the flower market for her to realise what's been missing in her own life, and as she starts to fall for him, she's forced to confront a painful secret from her past, and decide whether it's worth risking everything for a second chance at happiness.
