Project Keepsake
Released by Open Road Media

FASCINATING PERSONAL HISTORIES ARE REVEALED THROUGH THE STORIES OF CHERISHED OBJECTS, IN THIS ANTHOLOGY CELEBRATING THE MEANINGFUL MEMENTOES OF OUR LIVES.

Amber Lanier Nagle has always been interested in keepsakes, whether her own or those she encounters in her friends’ homes. Seemingly ordinary items—a glass bluebird, a pocketknife, a dime-store locket, a faded fishing lure, a dented cake pan, a model train car—become priceless treasures when their stories are uncovered. In Project Keepsake, Nagle collects the tales of these objects and their beloved memories from contributors near and far.

“Why do you keep this?” she asks. “Where did it come from?” And then she listens as the stories pour out. Told in first-person by both seasoned and aspiring writers, every essay in the anthology is unique, yet each reveals common threads that connect us all and celebrate the glorious human experience.

Amber Lanier Nagle is the brainchild behind PROJECT KEEPSAKE, a collection of stories told in first-person by ordinary people about their treasured keepsakes and mementos. She facilitates workshops in Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee to help aspiring writers find their voice and craft their own stories. Nagle is published by Open Road Integrated Media and represented by Loiacono Literary Agency.
