Featured Anthology:
THE MYSTERY OF FATE: Common Coincidence or Divine Intervention?
This book is about all different kinds of Fate. The common thread is that each story raises the question: “Was that just a coincidence—or is there something more...?”
Arlene Uslander (Sonora, California) and
Brenda Warneka (Scottsdale, Arizona) met on a writer's site on the Internet,
and this book is a culmination of that relationship.
Arlene is the author of 15 books and over 400 articles. Brenda, an attorney and
businesswoman, writes on legal and human interest topics. They are both
award-winning journalists.
Fate is a universal concept. Call it what you may: destiny, luck, kismet or coincidence, the common thread in this fascinating anthology is the presence in everyday lives of a force that intervenes. The stories in this book will make you laugh; some will make you cry. Some will amaze you, while still others will inspire and motivate you. But each account carries the imprint of its author, allowing his or her perspective to light the way to a unique interpretation of fate. While some storytellers simply allow for the presence of destiny or fate, others connect their experiences to a Higher Power, whether Guardian Angel or God or both. No matter your theological stance, by the end of the book, you may find it difficult to attribute the events recounted here to happenstance.
These experiences with fate, some of which
were written by the editors, span several decades and cross continents,
highlighting the elements of timelessness and universality of the concept of
fate. For fate is indeed a timeless concept. The ancient Greeks believed that
fate was more powerful than the gods. Ask yourself: what do you believe?
The Mystery of Fate can be ordered on Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble.com, from the publisher: www. rjbbuckleypublishing.com. and through brick-and-mortar bookstores. Visit the Fate website: www.thefatesite.com
