Written by fifteen Appalachian women authors, about Appalachian women, these stories reflect on the theme of struggle and triumph. These works depict the strength and wit of mountain women; some from decades past, others from contemporary times. When faced with adversity, these women choose to forge ahead and overcome their troubles. The stories told in Self-Rising Flowers portray women who possess the qualities it takes to be considered a "mountain girl." Just like the 2006 short story collection, The Zinnia Tales, this group of stories embodies the Mountain Girl Press mission statement: Fiction that celebrates the wit, humor, and strength of Appalachian women.
