Sarah lives in a little bubble of calm and serenity in Modiin with her family and her Kindle.

Throughout the war, Bethami has found beautiful and raw emotions expressed in words and images, sometimes difficult emotions that reflect the strength around us.
Bethami views these creative works as a sort of therapy for both authors and readers, as we share, listen, and learn about reactions that are both similar to each other and different.
Listening to each other’s words – iron words! – is one way to ensure that we draw strength from our community – strength of iron – and get through this time with some sanity in place.
Dr. Yael Maoz has a rich background in science and publishing. Having made Aliyah to Israel in 2012 as a scientist, she later founded Beverly House Press, focusing on empowering authors.
Yael is passionate about sharing the important narratives shared here in Iron Words and is leading the project to compile this collection into a book, aiming to amplify diverse perspectives and foster understanding.
