After more than six weeks of intense board discussions and a wide-ranging search for best options, since the recent $50,000 pledge to the New Horizons/Small "Zones of Peace" Publishing Fund was made through an "anonymous, masked donor" last month -- an agreement was reached Thursday with Kevin Anderson & Associates, a New York Times bestselling firm of editors, writers and ghost writers, to provide the talent that will assist our organization's agenda in beginning the journey of --
Getting all of NH/ZOP Executive Director and Founder, Anastasia Rosen-Jones, entire collection of "mss in progress" published someday soon -- asap!
Q: Why is this soooo big for NH/ZOP?
A: Three main reasons: 1. Because what these books contain is almost magical in terms of the medicine they offer to help heal our wounded nation; 2. NH/ZOP is the vehicle for this inoculation; and 3. Anastasia has pledged to publish her collection with proceeds going to our organization to support its various missions.
Of course that will take years as Anastasia began writing for publication in 1988!! when she first was discovered by Random House/Ballantine Book Vice President, Cheryl Woodruff.
And, as her story goes, lost out on her opportunity to publish the three books she then wrote under the terms of the contract she had with Random House/Ballantine due to her losing her eyesight and remaining blind for eight, long years, "quarantining," during those years, as folks are doing now up in the mountains at the New Horizons Retreat Center.
Quite a story, about to be told, is Anastasia The Storyteller!
Quite a miracle is Anastasia!
We all know that a journey of 1000 miles begins with one step.
So here we go, Anastasia and NH/ZOP long time coming!
Congratulations to Anastasia and Ian Corson of Kevin Anderson and Associates, our representative for taking next steps together.
