Marigold Press Author, Chelsea Simpson, releases her debut memoir, Like Poppies Do
Like Poppies Do is a powerful memoir of survival, resilience, and rebirth. Chelsea Simpson shares her journey through generational trauma, domestic abuse, and the long road to reclaiming her voice and identity. With raw honesty, she reveals the messy reality of healing and the courage it takes to walk away, rebuild, and bloom again—proof that even in the most broken soil, something beautiful can grow.
“Shipwreck – Throw That S.H.I.T. Overboard would not be the force it is without the editorial brilliance of the Marigold Press Books team. They treated my manuscript like sacred ground.”
— Carmen Calhoun“I have been very pleased with the service I received at Marigold Press Books regarding the publication of my husband’s book - My Story, My South. Rebekah laid out all costs and provided good feedback, as well as incorporating our wishes for the final product. Her documents and queries demonstrated professional care. Above all, this experience of self-publishing moved more quickly than an earlier document; so much so, that it looks like my husband will receive the published copies in time for his birthday celebration. If I ever decide to publish again, I will gladly work with Marigold Press Books.”
— Dr. Rose Metts“Working with Marigold Press Books has been one of the most empowering and healing experiences of my life. From the very beginning, I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with Rebekah, who has not only been my publishing guide but also someone I’ve worked with in a coaching setting. That unique, personal connection made all the difference when I decided to write a book rooted in deeply personal experiences and trauma.”
— Chelsea Simpson“Marigold Press Books demonstrates exceptional professionalism. The staff's kindness, expertise, and encouragement made me feel like I was working with family. They produced outstanding results with my book, as evident from the consistently positive Amazon reviews. I credit my success as an author to Marigold Press Books and look forward to working with them again. I wholeheartedly recommend them. ”
