Starving in a Chrysalis

The debut of "Starving in a Chrysalis" will surely capture readers with Ashley's keen and felt sense of awareness of the natural world, love of metaphors, symbols, and depth psychology. The poems are breathtaking and hold a profound understanding of what it means to feel deeply. The theme of this book is rooted in transformation and what it is like to befriend yourself through growing up and into wholeness. Other themes include nature, reparenting, courage, and spirituality. The inspiration for the title comes from the poem "Not All Caterpillars Fly." Ashley describes this title as the brutal and beautiful journey of accepting that she not only would feel the world as a poem but birth it into the world through her words.
