HCAS Communication Majors Self-Publish Works of Fiction and Poetry

Flor-Mireles

B.A. in Communication majors in the Department of Communication, Media, and the Arts within the Halmos College of Arts and Sciences have self-published their first works of fiction and poetry. In November, Wilson published her book “The Shadows of Heaven” as the first installment of a fantasy book series called “Trials of Fate,” which takes place in a fictional world with angel lore and elements of modern society. Wilson, a junior with a concentration in Digital Media Production, said her goal was to include marginalized groups within the subgenre of fantasy and to inspire others to write their own stories.

 In January, Mireles published her first book and poetry collection called “Perspective (and other poems).” The collection, which features 51 unique poems, is illustrated by Naomi Nguyen and examines the journey of finding oneself and the ability to connect with nature. Mireles, a senior with a concentration in Journalism, spent two years working on the collection, she said, and is now working on a second poetry collection.
