Meet The Poets

Lori Bellman, Chrissy Costa, Renée Kogler, and Erika Roman Saint-Pierre are four distinct poets bonded by bravery, honesty, and a shared language as resistance. Writing from the edges of heartbreak and healing, shame and desire, they bring not only poems but presence. Together, they open space for truth-telling, risk-taking, and fierce feminine authorship—on the page and far beyond.

Undressing the Silence

Embrace is a bold, intimate collection of poetry celebrating female sensuality, penned by four women from different cultures, races, and sexual identities.

These pages hold moments tender, wild, raw, and unquestionably feminine. With lush imagery and fearless language, Embrace pulses with life, longing, and liberation. From the brush of a lover’s hand across bare skin to the echo of footsteps leaving what no longer serves you, each poem lingers—alive in stillness, fierce in self-acceptance.

Embrace doesn’t just ask to be read—it insists on being felt. This isn’t just poetry. It’s an offering—an unveiling of the sensual and the sacred.
