The Raw & Unfiltered Anthology VOL 1:
In 2015, Feminine Collective Media published the first anthology of selected works from writers on the magazine. The anthology included 99 essays, poems, and prose from 38 contributors.
“In the pages of this book you will hear your deeper voice and touch the raw places of yourself where angels fear to tread and as you read them watch out because you just might become fearless and unbound.”
―Agapi Stassinopoulos, Author, Unbinding the Heart: A Dose of Greek Wisdom, Generosity, and UnconditionalLove
“Getting to the core: the authentic, mindful, soul-baring, gut-wrenching and often tearful core is what Feminine Collective aims to achieve. The brutal honesty in RAW&UNFILTERED is a call to action for women everywhere to get real, speak up, put their shoulders back and demand to be loved–by themselves.
―Dominique Sachse, Evening news anchor, KPRC-TV Houston, YouTube vlogger
Love Notes From Humanity: The Lust, Love & Loss Collection:
In 2017, Feminine Collective Media published its second anthology of selected poems from the magazine. All proceeds go to The Life After Project, which provides support individuals who suffer from mental health issues.
Amazing collection of Universal thoughts on LOVE! And another section on LUST and another section on LOSS. Don’t they all go hand in hand. I love this collection of poems because the voices vary: men and women from near and far!
LOVED LOVED LOVED this collection of real, gritty, heartfelt poems. No airy-fairy poetry here. This anthology will thrill poetry lovers AND those who mistakenly believe they don’t enjoy poetry! This will change your minds and open your hearts!
Love this book – wonderful poetry by so many talented writers. Each page sucked me into different emotions through stories told with candour, and words chosen with heartfelt passion. A beautiful collection of poems about “lust, love & loss”
