To partake in the project, authors must be available and willing to join the private Facebook group and engage with other authors involved.

Grounded Presents Defining Moments: Stories of Strength, Courage, and Hope is currently available on the Amazon and Barnes and Noble websites. Though it is not required, all authors are encouraged to purchase a copy of the previous anthology to get an overall feel for the project. The links are below. 

Though authors are not required to be members of Grounded Jeremiah 29:11, this project is a faith-based initiative that is open to Christian women. Writers who participate in this project are expected to write from a position of faith that should be reflected in their writing. 

The central theme of the book is "Victory, Triumph, and Success." Your chapter should focus on an event in your life that led to your stepping out on faith and overcoming fear. The book aims to inspire readers with real-life stories of victory and triumph. However, it is not intended to cover stories of healing from trauma or past relationships, or overcoming illness, abuse, addiction, grief, or near-death experiences. While you may reference these as challenges you faced and overcame, they should not be the main focus of your chapter. The mood of the book is one of determination and perseverance, so be sure to emphasize those qualities in your story.

Please be advised that the details of your chapter should not be so specific that it implicates any person, place, or entity. Chapters should not exceed 10 pages based on the template provided.
