Description:“Living is what’s supposed to happen after you survive. It’s life in ‘post-survival’ that defines the human character’s ability to move forward from trauma.” ~ Maggie Kirton2018 Readers' Favorite Gold Medal Award: NON-FICTION - SOCIAL ISSUES***Contains mature themes. For readers 18 and above.My Firefly ~ Walls of the Storm by award-winning creative writer, Maggie Kirton, is a powerful and innovative exploration of a sensitive and painful subject — the impact of abuse on a child.Kirton's unique storytelling approach uses the metaphor of a house and the "insects" that inhabit it, providing readers with an allegorical perspective that challenges conventional thinking. Her writing is characterized by rare honesty and brilliance, as she metaphorically shields readers from the pain and ugliness associated with her abuse."Maggie Kirton knows that human beings may accept our own traumas but we are, by and large, incapable of getting overly-close to those of others. Fortunately, the house-spirit (the author) knows exactly where the limit is and constantly takes us to the brink but never quite tumbles us over the edge and into the abyss."The book explores how abuse affects the mind, especially when it comes from a trusted father figure. The title, My Firefly, aptly captures the essence of her tale, emphasizing her journey to maintain and reveal her inner glow despite the darkness she endured.Readers commend Kirton for shedding light on the profound and lasting damage caused by abuse, giving testament to the perseverance of the human spirit."The house waits for her to show the world her beautiful glow. In writing this book, that is exactly what Maggie Kirton has done... she has shone a light on the full extent of the lifelong damage such abuse causes. By doing so, she encourages others like us to speak out from under abuse, no matter how painful. Bravo, Firefly!" ~ Reviewed by Viga Boland on Readers' Favorite.My Firefly is described as a gripping and heartrending tale that encourages survivors to speak out and confront the painful realities of their experiences."I found her protective writing style unique and an intelligent way to relay these horrific events.""I recommend My Firefly to everyone. It's a tough subject that many would rather not think about. Everyone needs to know the signs to look for in children. If you "feel" something is not right with a child, act on that feeling. You could save a child many years of trauma. Thank you, Maggie Kirton, for sharing your story. My Firefly is a steady light shining bright through the darkness.""As difficult as it certainly must have been to write this, the story ebbed and flowed naturally and without haste. The house telling the story is Genius on so many levels. I don't think anyone could tell this story from a first person perspective. For me as a reader, I can't help but see that the house is inevitably a part of firefly... Thank You So Much for sharing your story Maggie. You have written it in such a way that I think it could truly transform those who discover it. This is such an incredible story."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
