We live in a critical and oftentimes violent world. People are
afraid to talk about what they feel, think, or believe. They
withhold energy for fear of being ridiculed, punished, or excluded.
They hide their deepest dreams and desires away and cover them up
with doubt, insecurity, old experiences, and fears. Cynthia James
know this-because that was her experience. Covering seven decades
of living, traveling, and growing, Does My Voice Matter? follows
James's journey of self-discovery and authenticity as she gradually
recognizes that she has a voice-and learns how to use it. She uses
her own life experiences as a backdrop for her exploration of how
the voice is used as a tool of engagement; how a singular or
collective voice can enhance empowerment, transparency, and
accountability; and, finally, how expression can develop new ideas,
shift cultures, political views, transform organizations, create
laws, and improve lives. Written for anyone who wants to discover
the power within that makes them special, Does My Voice Matter? has
a vital message: Uniqueness is your own glorious imprint on this
planet, and it is calling you to come out. It doesn't matter if
your awakening is large or small, it doesn't matter what your age,
race, religion, or history is-anyone can begin right where they
are, right now.

her soul mate.
Engage in the compelling, honest, and insightful story of a
woman who suddenly finds herself immersed in prison culture when
she marries a felon.
Watermarked takes a penetrating look at the very emotional and
traumatic experience of migration from a Canadian perspective. For
refugees, it is understandable, but what prompts people to leave
places of relative security to search for new lands and
experiences? Toronto, the migration destination of choice for many,
allows the poet Cynthia James, the opportunity to meet a variety of
migrants and thus explore a range of enigmatic reactions. The poems
look at factors such as age, ESL barriers, new adjustments to
climate, the strength of people who undertake this mission, and how
they cope or flounder in their everyday lives as they ride the
Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) service. Watermarked even takes a
ride on a sightseeing trip, among a multicultural band, on a coach
across provinces, to New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island, facing
the Atlantic. For the Caribbean migrant, in particular, poems
reflect on the activities of subjects from far-flung empires and
explore in continued amazement, what can cause once termed
post-colonial subjects to return to swear allegiance to the queen.
The poems in Watermarked are replete with analogies of ebb and
flow, becalming waters and raging tempests. The four sections,
Signs and Signatures, Parchment, Reversing Falls, and Google Knows
Your Name, read like a continuous migration poem. The poems echo
the bones of many Diasporas, and they are the meeting place for a
myriad of unexpected cousins. Watermarked is Canadian, Caribbean
and yet universal, suggesting alternative definitions of home and
loyalty - beyond the limitations of places of origin and nativity.
