“Zakiya shows folks how to break chains. That they are limitless, and that bondage is conquerable. Her voice is thunder. We stop. And we listen.”

Cotton Candy Skies
RELEASING SPRING 2025
Be among the first to read the first release from first-time author Zakiya Mickle.
In this deeply personal collection of stories, poems, and reflections, Zakiya invites you to explore not just who you are, but who you have been—and to consider what guidance you may need as you step into who you are becoming.
Cotton Candy Skies is both a mirror and a map for those seeking to understand themselves more deeply. With vulnerability and grace, Zakiya shares her own "brutiful" path to truth and liberation, reminding readers that we all deserve the space to heal, grow, and become. The journey is ours to take—let's offer it to ourselves.
“I always keep a few books on my desk, and yeah, this is one. To say this book is amazing is an understatement.”
