GIVE-AWAY - Linda Keilbart Scanlan Giving Away Forged in the Refiner's Fire
This week, author, poet, and Navy war veteran Linda Keilbart Scanlan (another contributor to Famous Family Nights), is giving away a copy of a book to which she contributed called Forged in the Refiner's Fire by Candace E. Salima and Elizabeth A. Cheever.
Author Heather B. Moore in her review of Forged in the Refiner’s Fire says: “I immediately found myself caught up in the stories of the trials and tribulations that others have gone through (some are well-known LDS names such as entertainer Merrill Osmond, author Tristi Pinkston, etc.). These are stories from the heart—stories that have changed lives. From an unwanted painful divorce, to a debilitating injury, to a childless couple—many walks of life are examined. Do these stories have good endings? Not necessarily—because they are true stories—about the ebb and flow of living a good life in spite of difficult challenges. About finding and maintaining faith against the odds.”
Linda Scanlan has won numerous poetry awards, and was nominated by the International Society of Poets as the "New Poet of the Year for 2004". Her children's book ONE sells to an international market. Linda has written a new book that will be released early next year. Visit her blog at Focus On One.
