The advent of digital publishing has seen the rise of a new breed of writers: independent, experimental and unfettered by convention.
This brand new anthology features a small sampling of these very writers, in a speculative fiction collection that will capture the imagination and dazzle the senses. The storytelling genius in this collection is most evidenced by its memorable characters: a young woman haunted by her ex-boyfriend’s sweater, time travelers with a suspicious interest in babies, a gender-changing alien desperate to heal a loved one…
In these stories, fourteen independent authors display the imagination, insight and wonderful originality that characterizes the unique world of online fiction.
