	Books - Stories of Strength

Stories of Strength is a 2005 anthology printed to raise funds for disaster relief. It was edited by Jenna Glatzer, the author of the Celine Dion biography For Keeps. Contributors include science fiction novelist Orson Scott Card, actor Wil Wheaton (Star Trek, Stand By Me), and Christian romance author Robin Lee Hatcher.

With more than 100 pieces from writers all over the world, and with the help of prominent editors and graphic designers, Stories of Strength is a tribute to the human spirit. The anthology includes true stories of courage and endurance in challenging situations that range from the death of a child to living through natural disasters, to smaller-scale trials, like dealing with returning an overdue book to the local library.

The writers hope to turn their words into sizeable long-term contributions to disaster relief charities. In addition to the writers' donations, publishing company Lulu.com is generously donating its profits from the project.
