CHALLENGES: an Anthology is the fifth 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. Many are authors of their own published books, some just enjoy sharing their stories and poems, and all love to write. CHALLENGES has something for everyone: heartfelt poetry; stories that are sad, funny, heartwarming, and inspirational; and tales of fantasy, adventure, and mystery. This 2018 anthology truly reflects the diversity of California's Antelope Valley. The talented authors in this book range in age from ten years young to nonagenarian. They have worldly backgrounds that span from Mexico to the Middle East. They hail from all walks of life: doctors, teachers, students, actors, artists, business owners, columnists, counselors, aerospace employees, homemakers, ministers, monks, and entertainers. All have a desire to write and to share their writing with you. This community of writers also gives back to their community by donating proceeds from all of their anthologies to needy causes.
