Creating community and sharing stories is the primary goal of Our Stories Today. How can we make a difference and leave a beautiful future for the generations that come after?
Things are changing. So, let’s talk.
My first book: “Wonder: A Garden Journal” is a reflective and poetic exploration of the author’s journey through a creative block, finding solace and inspiration in her garden and the natural world. Through a series of journal entries and poems, Salcido captures the beauty of seasonal changes, the interconnectedness of life, and the importance of mindfulness and presence.
The book invites readers to slow down, pay attention, and find peace in the ordinary cycles of nature, offering a heartfelt reminder of the simple yet profound wonders that surround us. Available at Boulder Book Store or Amazon or through me personally.
A one-of-a kind chapbook: “Matriarch: Meditations on Motherhood” is now available for preorder.
Twenty Bellows has been publishing beautiful and contemporary collections and “Matriarch” has the potential to rise to the top of their extraordinary anthologies.
I am delighted to be included in the company of such incredibly talented writers, poets and authors, and share my poem “Mom to Mom” inspired by witnessing my older daughter navigate the chaos of newborn twins. The writings in this book are full of language every daughter, mother, or sister resonates with. You can pre-order here: bio.site/twentybellows
Remember Me (This Way)
“Remember Me (This Way)” is a recent photographic project examining what we hope others will remember about us when we are gone. This project features photographs of twelve local women accompanied by their own words describing how they want to be remembered.
This work will be exhibited at the North Boulder Recreation Center and Louisville Recreation and Senior Center in May of 2025 and has also recently been featured on Denver7 which you can find here.
The older I get, the more I seek guidance from the natural world.
