My Fellow Americans
This is an anthology series with a yearly focus on a different marginalized group of Americans. The first anthology will focus on the issue of marriage equality.
Indigo Plume is reaching out to the GLBT community (including friends, family members, and allies). We want to publish prose, poetry, and essays that focus on marriage equality. There are many in the community who have powerful stories; stories of love, stories of loss, stories of discrimination, stories of personal pain, and stories of hope. Indigo Plume is asking the GLBT community to submit these stories for publication. It takes courage to speak out and bare one’s soul in the face of adversity and Indigo Plume wants to take those courageous voices and legitimize their message through this anthology.

The initial costs to produce this anthology will be paid by the Indigo Plume Publishing Company. After the initial costs have been recovered through sales, the rest of the proceeds will be given as charitable donations to regional programs that benefit GLBT and questioning youth. Indigo Plume will not profit from this anthology. We look forward to reading many thought provoking submissions over the six month submission period.  Click here for submission guidelines.

The Prostitute's Daughter
Adrienne Ruvalcaba's next novel.
Cece Graves has been hiding from her past for most of her life, but a tragic fire and a mysterious stalker set her past on a collision course with her present… and she has no idea what’s coming.
On the surface she is the owner of a bakery and specializes in making cakes for special occasions. Her talent for cake design has gone largely unnoticed, but that will soon change. Shane Gregory, one of her daughter’s in-laws, volunteers to help her get the recognition she deserves in a crazy scheme that could either be the biggest success or the worst disaster of her professional life.
Even as she makes positive changes to both her bakery and her life, Cece’s troubled past always simmers just beneath the surface, threatening to break free at any moment. She fights hard to keep her painful memories in the past where they belong, but after more than twenty years of hiding from it all she begins to realize it may be time to face it. As Cece and Shane’s friendship grows stronger she learns that not all men are like the one who ruined her childhood. When Cece and her stalker’s lives finally collide, will she be able to withstand the aftermath and the exposure of her darkest secrets?



Thoughts of a Broken Child: My Pain, My Tears, My Struggles
A book of poetry written by Adolfo Davis and edited by Jill Stevens.

"Thoughts of a Broken Child is a collection of poems and a letter to our youth. I decided to put it together to help them open their eyes and not make the same stupid decisions I have made and many others have made that landed us in prison or even worse – dead.
Since our youth seem to look up to gangsters, drug dealers, bling-bling, then who better to try and reach them than someone who once was a part of that false lifestyle that they seem to worship? I was once a part of one of Chicago’s most notorious gangs, the Gangster Disciples. I sold drugs, rocked the best gear, had some nice girls, and ran the streets. I did it all and look where it landed me. I just want to show our youth that my reality can become their reality if they keep living that lifestyle or thinking about that lifestyle.
I also want to show the parents how important it is to children to have a mother and father in their lives and how important it is to talk to our children and see what’s on their minds. Our children need to know that they can trust and count on their parents emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.
I hope and pray that my pain, my tears, my struggle, and my reality is enough to help change our youth’s way of thinking and open their eyes to the truth."
-Adolfo Davis

“I met Adolfo Davis when I worked as a therapist at Tamms Correctional Center, the only super maximum security prison in Illinois. Adolfo stood out for his tragic past and positive attitude despite it. I wondered how someone who came from so little and such hardship could be so positive and have the heart he had to want to help others not repeat the mistakes of his life that ultimately led him to the super max prison. It is my sincere hope that Adolfo is able to one day gain his freedom, where he can continue to touch the lives of others for the better and make the wonderful contribution to society that we are now missing.” -Jill Stevens, M.A., LCPC
