Publisher's Synopsis
ADVENTURING: an Anthology is the fourth collection of short stories, poems, memoirs, and essays published by the Antelope Valley Writers Association (AVWA). This book showcases the talents of the many writers who live in the high desert of Southern California, an area where the artists are as unique as their native Joshua trees. Some are authors of their own published books, some just enjoy sharing their stories and poems, and all love to write. ADVENTURING has something for everyone: heartfelt poetry; stories that are sad, funny, heartwarming and inspirational; and tales of fantasy, adventure, and mystery. This anthology, the group's fourth, truly reflects the diversity of California's Antelope Valley. The talented authors in this book have worldly backgrounds that span from Mexico to the Middle East. They hail from all walks of life: doctors, teachers, students, artists, business owners, counselors, aerospace employees, homemakers, ministers, and entertainers. All have a desire to write and to share their stories with you.
