For release August 15th.

More than fifty writers. One unforgettable final line.

From lyrical poetry and literary fiction to flash fiction and experimental prose, every piece in this unique anthology ends with the same haunting sentence:

“By morning, the sea had taken it.”

The result is a remarkable collection of voices from around the world, each taking the reader somewhere entirely unexpected. Together, these poems and stories explore love, loss, memory, mystery, hope, humour, and the many ways a single line can transform a narrative.

A celebration of imagination and the endless possibilities of storytelling, this pamphlet proves that while every ending may be the same, every journey is completely unique.

By Kathryn Rossati

Roar/Raw is a powerful, deeply honest collection of poetry exploring life as an AuDHD person navigating a world that rarely makes room for difference.

Written with a voice that is sharp, sensory-rich, and unapologetically real, Kathryn Rossati captures the intensity of overstimulation, the exhaustion of social interaction, the weight of memory, and the complexity of identity. These poems do not soften their edges. They tell the truth.

From the quiet vulnerability of A Letter About Being Neurodivergent to My Childhood Self to the raw emotional surge of Roar, this collection moves between overwhelm and joy, shutdown and self-expression, anger and acceptance. Poems such as After a Meeting, Hum, Meltdown, and Flap Happy offer vivid glimpses into the lived experience of neurodivergence, written with clarity, care, and fierce authenticity.

Kathryn Rossati is a poet and novelist based on the Isle of Wight. As an AuDHD writer living with chronic pain, their work is shaped by lived experience and a deep commitment to honesty on the page. Their writing invites readers not only to understand but to feel.
