This blog is an opportunity for us to celebrate our community, talk about writing through the lens of mental health, and empower readers who are marginalized.

The title is a nod to the great American author and poet, Maya Angelou, and her poem of the same name. Those of us who have lived experience with mental health issues know that stigma can be difficult to process along with the life-long journey of recovery.

Stay tuned for posts from InkWell members on a bi-monthly basis. We hope that the strength of our community can serve as inspiration to others struggling out there—to continue to rise to their feet and stand in their power.

Maya Ameyaw,
Editor
