Crying Spells is Bethany Moore's fourth self-published work of poetry, following her previous work's themes of self-discovery, spirituality, searching, and coming to terms with those darkest nights of the soul. Poems follow the artist through her twenties and early thirties as she dissects and digests the struggles of coming of age and sorting out one's boundaries, limitations, as well as developing and establishing one's true values and morals. Reviews:"When I read Bethany's prior collection of poetry, Weather Magick, I was impressed, sure that future works from this author would continue to be on par with her previous work. However, Crying Spells is actually a notable departure from Moore's prior work, in that it is extremely comfortable within its own established voice, allowing the words to take ownership over their author's unique tone and style, while expanding upon the format as a whole to create something that is both confident and questioning -- this is extremely rare for such an early entry to a volume of creative writing. Crying Spells is not just another book of poetry, but a milestone for an author who could have easily become lost in the sea of her colleagues, and instead, chose to create her own lane that is both respectful to form and completely independent of it, a feat that many writers never achieve. Bethany Moore's poetry has, within just a few years, evolved from extremely enjoyable, to flat-out undeniable." - Ray McMillin, Cherry City Studios"Bethany Moore is on fire. The poems in Crying Spells have such a sense of urgency that I sat down to read a few and found myself reading the book cover to cover in one sitting. Moore's poems are at once assertive and compassionate, and as real as they are full of magic. This collection of poems, spanning over a decade of the poet's life seem meant for each other. A collection not just of words or ideas, but a large cumulative story of the foundation of bone, the vulnerability of blood and the inevitability of sorrow and how we all face these things." - Brice Maiurro, Editor, South Broadway Ghost Society"These pieces are clear-sighted and smoothly-flowing, looking at everything, feelings, subjects, and objections without too much complication, and the book reads quickly and smoothly because of that talent without missing any of the hot-hearted pains and points. Moore's words have a sense of clarity, like raindrops swirling on your windshield in a rainstorm, or sparks from an eager campfire on a dark winter's night when your heart starts knocking. Moore's work has a rare hospitality." - Zack Kopp, Fire Diner
