Sharing: an Anthology

SHARING: an Anthology is the third collection of short stories, poems, memoirs, and essays published by the AVWA. This book showcases the talents of thirty writers who live in the high desert of Southern California, an area where the artists are as unique as their native Joshua trees. SHARING has something for everyone: heartfelt poetry; stories that are sad, funny, and inspirational; and some that range from scary to grisly. This 2015 anthology 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, firemen, ministers, and entertainers. All have a desire to write and to share their stories with you. With the publication of SHARING the AVWA continues its support for the local community by dedicating funds from the sales of its anthologies to needy causes.
