Selected Writings

By Joey Pedras

Selected Writings is a collection of early poems, stories, fragments, and reflective pieces by Joey Pedras, gathered from more than a decade of writing. Moving through love, grief, memory, longing, isolation, and the surreal textures of everyday life, this book captures the beginnings of a distinct literary voice taking shape across years of growth, restlessness, and emotional change.

The collection blends intimate poetry with short prose, lyrical fragments, and dreamlike imagery, creating a body of work that feels both personal and expansive. Some pieces are tender and direct. Others are strange, haunting, and deeply interior. Together, they trace the private weather of youth and the impulse to keep writing through every version of the self.

Organized into six sections, Selected Writings explores heartbreak, longing, the body, the instability of memory, and the emotional landscapes we carry long after people and places are gone. This is a book for readers drawn to introspective writing, poetic language, and work that lives between the literary, the emotional, and the surreal.

For anyone interested in contemporary poetry, short prose, and the evolution of an artist's voice, Selected Writings offers an intimate record of becoming.
