Shenee’ Edwards, author of The Miniseries of Me: Fictional Short Stories Based on the Life of Shenee’ Edwards
(Palmetto Publishing Group)

Based on the author’s life experiences, The Miniseries of Me is a poignant collection of short stories that deals with some of life’s most difficult circumstances. Ranging from child molestation and rape to divorce and adultery, the topics covered in this collection are emotion-provoking and sadly common.

Each story has a spiritual tone and encourages readers to take a look at the type of person they are, as well as take in all the wonders life has to offer. The Miniseries of Me brings to life a variety of characters; readers are sure to relate to one or more of them (or know someone who could).

Beneath the collection’s words is the truth of humanity’s ultimate goal of serving God. With each story’s conclusion, the message becomes clear: God is Love, and everything we go through is a test or a step to success in His vision.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write The Miniseries of Me: Fictional Short Stories Based on the Life of Shenee’ Edwards?

Shenee’ Edwards: I always had a passion for writing. However, I knew with all that I have been through, that it was finally time to share some of my experiences. What better way to do so than through my passion.
