by Celaine Charles
Available Now — Preorder the Book Here
Drawing on her own experience as an adopted child, author Celaine Charles crafts poems based on both her own life and fictionalized stories of her own design. The result is a powerful and honest book because it is told from the heart.
Emotional, deep, layered, beautiful, and stunning. This book of adoption poems will break your heart, then stitch it back together again.
How does it feel to give up your child for adoption, to adopt, or be adopted? Three Hearts Stitched tells the story from each view, often in a way you didn’t expect, revealing deep emotions and heart. The child who wonders if they were wanted or unwanted. A birth mother filled simultaneously with sorrow and hope. Parents who long for children to arrive. Confusion, sadness, joy. All these feelings and more are captured in Three Hearts Stitched.
This is the second book of poems by Celaine Charles. She was a poetry finalist in the Pacific Northwest Writer’s Association Literary Contest, July 2017. Her first poetry book Colors Collected was based on her online series Colors, awarded Best New Series, Best Continuing Series, and Best Poetry Series for the 2018 Channillo Awards.
Celaine Charles writes a powerful, honest, and vulnerable collection of poems about adoption that shows bravery and heart.

Almost exactly a year ago I met author Celaine Charles at a writer’s conference in Seattle. I’m proud to announce the presale for her book today. We are sending this preorder out a day early to you, our loyal newsletter readers!
And because I know I will get this question — the print book is expected to release on January 14. It’s mostly designed but still has a few more tweaks before it’s perfect. I’ll be ordering proofs next week and I can’t wait to hold it in my hands
