Walking on Broken Glass is an author platform and publishing brand founded by Janet Pinkney, a Philadelphia-born writer and survivor whose life story sits at the intersection of personal testimony and cultural insight. Through her memoir published by Bethune Publishing House, Janet draws from lived experiences of trauma, grief, poverty, illness, addiction within her family, and single motherhood to deliver a narrative that is raw, honest, and deeply human.

Her mission is to give voice to the realities that many women face but rarely see reflected with honesty and dignity on the page. Janet's work is part of a larger movement to affirm the strength, resilience, and worth of women — particularly Black women and families — who have navigated systemic pressure alongside deeply personal struggle.

Walking on Broken Glass is not simply a book; it is a declaration that survival is a form of brilliance, and that truth-telling without apology is an act of courage. Partnering with this platform means standing alongside a message that honors women who keep moving forward through grief, loss, and hardship — and ensures that their stories are seen, valued, and never again ignored.
