Survived by Faith and Grace Carolyn Collett

Born in Hazard Ky on a late stormy October night into a poor family in the head of a hollow, making the tenth child for her parents was not made easy for her. Drawing on a quite remarkable gift for storytelling and her own intimate memories of her childhood growing up in Survived by Faith and Grace she has written a chilling and warm novel about the pain, misery and bullying starting at five years old going all through her school years. She also includes the loving romance and fulfillment of the love of her life beginning at sixteen years of age. This book was written to inspire others and to help those that have had a traumatic childhood growing up realize that keeping the faith and not giving up, and staying true to themselves will help them become the strong and successful person they were created to become in life. I am proof that can and will happen.
