Prairieville, LA, February 10, 2026 --(PR.com)-- A.W. Collins, a college-educated writer and United States Army veteran whose storytelling is rooted in personal truth and emotional depth, has completed his new book, “The Quiet Storm”: a powerful story of a young boy who, after facing abuse and fear throughout his upbringing, is pushed to making a choice that will change everything and alter his life forever.
“Andy has learned to stay quiet,” writes Collins. “In a home ruled by fear, silence feels safer than speaking. His stepfather’s fists are frequent, his mother’s screams familiar. But as the bruises deepen and the nights grow colder, the quiet begins to crack.
“Trapped between powerlessness and rage, Andy carries a burden no child should bear. And one night, in a moment that changes everything, he makes a choice that shatters the fragile world around him.
“Now, nothing will ever be the same—not for Andy, not for his mother, and not for the boy he used to be.”
