Leanna Cinquanta was home-schooled by nonconformist, law-defying pioneer parents who preferred adventure to stability. She learned to fly a plane at age nine and became a champion equestrian at sixteen. But Leanna had a second life as well. Each night when she lay down to sleep she entered a bizarre other world called the Dream. There she experienced a whirling adventure battling a hideous enemy in the companionship of a lovely but mysterious man. Then the adventure became a nightmare until the strange and shocking ending. That conclusion remained a mystery to Leanna until - one dreadful, wonderful, awesome night - the Dream became a reality. Leanna's memoir-thriller "Dying to Conquer" interweaves The Dream with delightful stories from her conquesting “no fear” daytime life between ages 4-15. “Dying to Conquer” will be released in 2012. In 1997 Leanna founded TellAsia Ministries and spends half of each year in north India with her orphanages, schools and other projects. In March 2011 she received the “Outstanding Graduate” award in completion of her Doctoral degree from Regent University. She is a dynamic motivational speaker and travels extensively when not in India.
