The Heat of the Moment
Inspired by the heroes of the 2007 San Diego Wildfires
In a world filled with disasters and catastrophes, there always remains hope. In The Heat of the Moment, twenty-one authors came together with a showcase of short fiction.
Committed to aiding those who lost so much in the blink of an eye, we proudly offer this tribute to the true heroes of the San Diego wildfires, the survivors. We invite you to wear your own red ribbon in honor of their extraordinary "Courage and Inspiration."
Proceeds from the sale of this book will offer aid to those heroes through the support of the "Fire Safe Council of San Diego County."
