What If Someone Sees Us? collects nonfiction by new writers: clear voices, fresh content, engaging storytelling. This collection shows what people new to writing, given opportunity and support and guidance, can accomplish.

These new authors write with economy, grace, precision, courage. Their stories pull us into spaces unfamiliar to us, and yet in the things that happen in those spaces, things we may not have known about, we recognize pieces of ourselves.
