If you have not heard of this great coming together of some really fantastic people to help a young man improve his life, then please read the information below. The launch for this anthology will help raise money for this cause and provide you with some quality reading on adversities others have gone or are going through. I highly recommend it!

A collection of seventy moving and uplifting original pieces -
real life, flash fiction, and poetry - about battling against the
odds and the ultimate triumph of the human spirit. The
contributors include Amazon bestselling authors Alex J. Cavanaugh
and Kyra Lennon, and the cream of upcoming talent.
The anthology is part of a fundraising effort to send the editor's
stepson, Andrew McNaughton, to a specialist college in England.
Andrew has cerebral palsy, and is a remarkable young man with a
promising future. However, the free further education options
offered in his own country of Scotland will not challenge him and
allow him to progress. In order to access the education he
deserves, Andrew will have to pay exorbitant fees, thus creating a
situation of discrimination.
Help us get Andrew to college by buying a book that runs the full
gamut of human emotions, ultimately leaving you inspired and glad
to be alive. Whatever struggles you are going through, our sincere
hope is that this book will help.
