Stories of Strength Anthology Update


Received an e-mail from Jenna Glatzer with the Stories of Strength manuscript attached. She and her wonderful crew of volunteers have done a wonderful job on this anthology. I’m proud to be a part of such a worthy cause. 100% of the proceeds will be donated to disaster relief charities.
My essay, “Perseverance,” is good to go and will appear in the "Strength to Start Over" section of the anthology. I began reading the stories by other AW members…need to get more Kleenex before I continue. Wonderful compilation of Stories of Strength! AbsoluteWrite and its members rock!

Here is the link to the Stories of Strength anthology website.

Meet the contributors.

How you can help.

Keep an eye out for updates.
