Words Between Worlds: A Poetry Collection
About this ebook
Words Between Worlds distills the full literary universe of Tiffany Solter, PhD, into fourteen original poems — spanning all of the worlds within the Solter Universe. From a near-death experience that became a thirty-year memoir of light and return, to a post-apocalyptic German Shepherd navigating a wasteland on day sixty-three, to a probation officer who refuses to let broken systems win, to a six-year-old Viking queen who discovers that smallness is a superpower — these poems traverse the complete arc of the human story.
Solter's work spans memoir, clinical fiction, post-apocalyptic fantasy, children's literature, recovery narrative, and Jungian analysis. But these poems reveal the single, coherent vision beneath them all: that shadow work is the beginning of freedom, that chosen family is the deepest magic, that love is always present tense, and that the observer changes what is observed.
The collection closes with a Jungian analysis of the poems as a unified psychological journey, and a call to action rooted in quantum consciousness: collapse your superposition, choose your tense, wear your crown.
"The magic is real. We are made of the same light — you, I, the gone. The reasons we came back won't fade. Reader, find yours. Move toward the dawn."
— From "Between Worlds"
About the author
Tiffany Solter, PhD is a mental health professional, educator, advocate, and lifelong seeker of magic whose writing explores the boundaries between life, death, justice, and the profound connections that define us. Born into a family of mountain people spanning Wyoming and Colorado, she grew up shaped, largely, by two grandmothers who taught her, one through train journeys across the West, the other chasing shooting stars across the plains, that anything is possible.
A survivor of a near-death experience in 1996, Solter spent decades integrating what she encountered in that "warm place where light is everything" into a life of healing work, academic achievement, and fierce advocacy. She holds a doctorate with a dissertation on grace and recovery, and has worked alongside peer counselors, nurses, and mental health teams she considers among the most transformative teachers of her life.
Her advocacy voice is unflinching and deeply personal. In "Be a Man": The Violence Society Ignores, Solter turns her clinical expertise and lived experience toward a crisis our culture has long refused to see: domestic violence against men. Drawing on research, survivor accounts, and her own family history, she challenges the archetypal and institutional blind spots that leave male victims invisible, unbelieved, and without adequate resources. The book is equal parts gripping fiction, Jungian psychological analysis, and practical call to action. It is complete with resource guides for survivors, supporters, military families, and children. It is the work of someone who has sat in clinical rooms with these men, loved them as family, and refused to stay silent.
She lives in what she calls Camelot, a home she and her husband Jeff manifested in childhood whispers, surrounded by family, familiars, motorcycles, and what she simply calls the magic.
“Between Worlds” is her memoir. "Be a Man" is her battle cry.
