Buckets of Hope Anthology
Kat Crawford is in the process of compiling stories from men and women for her new book, Buckets of Hope. Her goal with this book is to help those struggling with forgiveness after loss. The subtitle and cover design are still in the refining process, but she is inviting you to share your stories.
Kat is searching for stories on grief, loss, and/or forgiveness. The manuscript length is 500-700 words. Stories begin with a verse and end with a short reflection. (If you don’t have a reflection, one will be added—this is the teaching and sharing moment to follow your story.) Look at Kat’s first book, Dewdrops of Hope: Help for Those Going Through Grief and Loss for samples of styling.
This is a nonpaying market but offers a chance for writers to add to their published portfolios. Each author will receive one book for participating. Pen names are acceptable.
Possible topics to consider:
Loving an in-law who doesn’t like you
Forgiving those who don’t deserve it
Laughter found in impossible situations
How to battle the pain of a lost longtime friendship
The unexpected way God taught you to love after loss
How to survive the sale of everything sacred and move on
Forgiving yourself and/or God after the death of a loved one
Finding the good after the loss of everything through fire or flood
How you dealt with a death in your family differently than your spouse
How to get out of bed and face the day with an unkind boss or co-worker
Finding peace when chosen as executor for an estate when siblings don’t like you
The loss of a dream because of your own or a family member’s health problems
The deadline is January 31, 2018.
