By William Alfred Stephens Jr.

The Broken Mirror is a raw, unfiltered, and deeply personal story - a heartfelt apology from a father to his teenage daughter, written by a combat veteran who fought battles both overseas and within his own mind. Retired Sergeant First Class William Alfred Stephens Jr. removes the mask of strength to reveal his truth - confronting trauma, PTSD, loss, and redemption through spoken-word rhythm, memoir narrative, and poetic reflection. Each chapter serves as a mental-health tool, guiding readers toward understanding, accountability, and healing. This award-winning book bridges the gap between military and civilian life while reminding us that even a shattered reflection can still shine light. It's about rediscovering love, rebuilding relationships, and finding purpose through pain. A powerful testimony to resilience, fatherhood, and forgiveness, The Broken Mirror continues to inspire readers worldwide - proving that what's broken can still be beautiful.
