Welcome to Spirit of an Eagle

    Hello. My name is Steven S. Foster. Welcome to Spirit of an Eagle. 

    Ever since I can remember, I’ve been inspired by the majesty of seeing a bald eagle in flight. To me, this magnificent bird is a symbol of strength, courage, and freedom. Deeply moved, I like to write about people who struggle with challenges and learn to overcome their difficulties positively. 

    As a result, my characters will spiritually rise on wings like eagles and live freely as human beings. From there, I aim to inspire my readers with hope, renewal, and purpose.

My Short Story, War Butterfly 

   On the Hawaii Writer's Guild website, you can also read War Butterfly in the online Literary Review, Lattitudes. This haunting story came to me in a late-night dream. Deeply moved, I woke in tears and wrote my first draft feverishly before dawn. It takes place during the Civil War between two wounded and thirsty soldiers--one from the Union, the other a Reb. They must step out in the open and take water from a pond to survive. But if they try for it, they could be shot down. Their only hope is a little girl who chases after butterflies. Will she quench their thirst?
