Laid Bare: An Unthology
by Mary Beth Haile & Family

This isn't a theme-bound anthology. It's not a collection of genre-conforming stories. It's not tidy.

What it is: honest. Messy. Raw.

Laid Bare: An Unthology is a collection of flash fiction, poetry, and short prose that refuses easy categorization. Written by author Mary Beth Haile alongside her children, these 21 pieces explore humanity from the inside out-grief, absurdity, myth, madness, reverence, and survival.

Some stories hit like scripture. Others like an overheard conversation, a punchline, or a memory you didn't know you still carried. Together, they form a mosaic of perception and pain, love and legacy.

This book is for those who write to exorcise, who read to remember, and who believe that truth-when laid bare-has a life of its own.
