Tales2Inspire The Diamond Collection Series I is not a single themed anthology. It is a double header, containing two full contest-winning collections under one cover: the Emerald Collection and Topaz Collection.
The book works on three levels at once.
A complete themed collection in Part One: The Emerald Collection, named for the gemstone that symbolizes psychic powers, shares fifteen Beyond Coincidence stories that actually occurred, but were unlikely to have happened merely by chance.
A husband and wife, separated by war for over thirty years, are magically reunited through the appearance of a lace tablecloth. A runway dog sits in a garden miles from home, too frightened to move, while his frantic owner stops a total stranger, the one person able to lead her to her dog. These are the stories that often make even the most skeptical among us question, Could there be an unknown force, a stronger power, taking charge?
And then there is Part Two: The Topaz Collection, which brings us an entirely different theme and an entirely new set of contest-winning stories. Here you will find sixteen more contest winning stories, true events that have brought Personal Awakenings to their skilled storytellers, while doubling the value and the variety in a single book.
A mama cows dies seconds before giving birth, while a city gal with no experience in animal care is left to help bring this newborn calf into the world, She later raises him to a 2000 pound bull with the pride of a mother toward her growing child. Another woman, with no prior experience with horses, buys one on a whim. After a very rocky start with this recalcitrant animal, a neighbor's casual comment awakens her to a new way to communicate with her horse and earn his trust. Moments such as these happen every day, but the most powerful ones are those that suddenly bring us clarity of vision, fresh new perspectives, awakening us to fresh new ideas to embrace in our lives. The Topaz gemstone, the symbol for self-realization, truth and forgiveness, is a perfect match for this set of stories.
A project built on Authors Helping Authors. Every Tales2Inspire collection began as a global story contest, an idea that helps promote talented writers while creating exactly the kind of true human interest stories that readers are quietly searching for. That original idea, an authors helping authors project that grew into a contest of globally submitted stories, is part of what makes this collection feel different from anything assembled by a single author or a single publisher. That combination, two full themed collections, sixteen-plus true stories per collection, and a project built specifically to lift up the writers behind every story, is what makes Tales2Inspire The Diamond Collection Series I (and each series that follows) unlike anything else in its category.
This is not one collection. It is two.
Tales2Inspire began as an Authors Helping Authors project, a global story contest created to lift up talented writers while bringing readers exactly the kind of true human interest stories that remind us what people are capable of. Every story in this collection earned its place.
If you love true stories of personal awakenings, connection, and quiet resilience, and you want more than one collection's worth in a single book, this is for you.
