Magic is Plum Wild

A project of Epona Muse Publishing (see other related projects).

About

This is a charity anthology, with all proceeds going to The Y’all Squad, an amazing 501c3 organization that helps support people before and after severe weather. (Also, if you’re in need of weather coverage, I highly recommend Ryan Hall Y’all’s page for those of us who fall into radar holes or aren’t well served by local weather networks.)
When a storm gets plum wild and damages a town The Y’all Squad is there to help. And this anthology celebrates the wild weather and weather geek authors by being chock full of fantasy stories featuring magic and weather, and it’s all…you guessed it…plum wild! We’re looking for magically caused tornadoes, floods that follow a weather working, and the magically driven weather that creates for great fantasy reading.
