  • Summary

  • It’s been said our lives are no more than a string of decisions. Thousands of choices made every single day. Most seemingly inconsequential. While others harness the potential to lead us to dark and unforgiving places. Do our choices control our destiny? Or are we all like the gambler who repeatedly rolls the dice, hoping each time for a smile from Lady Luck?

  • Little Boy Wonder

    Little Boy Wonder
    May 13 2020

    As 11-year-old Norm Ollestad was dangling upside down in his plane seat, he couldn't help but wonder how his Father would manage to get them out of this one. Although they'd never experienced crashing into the side of a mountain in the middle of a blizzard, no less, Norm had experienced more in his 11 short years of life on earth, than most people have in a lifetime.

  • A Watery Grave

    A Watery Grave
    May 6 2020

    Stranded at the bottom of the ocean, Harrison Okene had nothing but a mattress a bottle of coke

    and a flashlight to keep him alive. Trapped in a tiny pocket of air in an upturned ship, Harrison was at

    the mercy of the Atlantic’s waters.

You are golden. Don't give up!

A fascinating account of the true survival story about an 11 year old boy who survives a plane crash, keeps a cool head, and perseveres in finding his way to help. If you find survival stories as awe inspiring as I do, you like this one. As a matter of fact, you'll like this entire series: Deadly Disasters by Wondrey.
