Tales2Inspire: The Crystal Collection

I have been asked several times, "Why include a book on humor in the Tales2Inspire series?" My answer is simple. I do believe that humor inspires us, simply by lifting our spirits and transporting us from the here and now to several moments of pure amusement. In the words of Josh Billings, "Laughter is the sensation of feeling good all over and showing it principally in one place." Bravo to the authors of the stories in this Crystal Collection, all winners in the Tales2Inspire annual `Authors Helping Authors' contest, for bringing a smile to our lips and some joy to our hearts. You will discover five chapters in this book, each with a unique theme, each filled with stories to tickle the funny bone. Just like crystals, they are well formed observation, funny with sharp edges, perfectly geometric and precise, enabling the viewer to look through them and see the world from different perspectives. I invite you to read these chapter titles to set your creative juices flowing. Perhaps they will help you recall some funny events in your life to match these themes: Kids Will Be Kids; Love In Bloom; People, Like Ice Cream, Come in Many Flavors; When Laughter Is Better Than Tears; and Laughter in Hindsight. Finally, you should know that just like every other book in the Tales2Inspire series, these stories were winners in a global competition, vetted by a jury of author peers and honed to perfection.
