This new collection of short stories will take readers around the world!
Many of the Christian Bookseller’s Association’s best-loved authors have teamed up with Multnomah Publishers to recount almost thirty short stories brimming with colorful characters in exotic settings they’ve experienced worldwide in "The Storyteller’s Collection: Tales of Faraway Places". Compiled by Melody Carlson––an experienced editor and an award-winning fiction author of over forty books herself––
the collection of short stories is a project of an online authors’ group, ChiLibris in association with Multnomah Publishers.
The Storyteller’s Collection is a powerful anthology of masterfully told short stories to transport readers around the globe with amazing tales of international romance, mystery, and humor. Short biographies follow the story of each well-known author/contributor (including Randy Alcorn, James Scott Bell, Terri Blackstock, Angela Elwell Hunt, Deborah Raney and many others).
Additionally, all royalties from sales of the book have been earmarked for The JESUS Film Project, a ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ International.
Left Behind series author Jerry Jenkins, a New York Times bestseller list veteran, launches the story-telling smorgasbord with a tourist’s tale of a poignant encounter with young beggars on a South Sea island. "The Lesson in the Shells" is brief but powerful—setting the volume’s highly inspirational tone.
Port au Prince, is the setting for Deborah Raney’s touching story, “Haiti’s Song”. Raney’s first novel, A Vow To Cherish (Bethany House Publishers), was the inspiration for World Wide Pictures’ highly acclaimed film of the same title. Raney is the author of several other novels and non-fiction books.
