Here's a small world story. I have a new story in Chicken Soup For the Sister Soul 2, which has just been released. Imagine my delight when I learned that another OurEcho writer also has a story in the same anthology. Renie Burghardt's tale about the coat she received in a refugee camp is one that I first read here at OurEcho. It's a wonderful story. When I was reading the bios in the contributor section, I saw that Renie also has a story in Chicken Soup For the Father & Daughter Soul, and so do I. I did not know Renie at the time that book came out.

I'm pleased to be in two anthologies along with Renie, who is a wonderful writer. Maybe we can do it again sometime.

Renie's story in the Sister Soul book is "Discovering The Joy Of Giving" and mine is "Wish Upon A Star"

OurEcho is a FREE SERVICE dedicated to capturing and sharing the individual "bits and pieces" that define our local communities. It might be a bit of interesting local history, an old photograph, a special memory or just a funny story. We are particularly interested in those fascinating and intriguing events/people (both large and small) that we all encounter as part of the human experience. It might be something that happened recently or something passed down to you through your family. Our goal is to provide a forum for local communities to share who they are through their stories and photographs. When you take the time to share these reflection with others, you help us better understand you, the world we live in, and if we are lucky, they help us better understand ourselves.
