title: StoryTrailing: Walking the Trails of Life (Volume) (Volume 1)
author: Lynne W Brown
description: For years I have taken pictures and made notes to remind me of stories I wanted to write, and when the time came stories began to fill the pages. Sometimes I would start writing and be surprised by how the story ended, but always I felt God leading me to write. My desire is to offer hope and encouragement and a desire for all to see God all along the trails of life.
