About

We're looking for (at least) ten stories that are inspired by the title of the anthology. Imagine, if you will, a moat. Usually a moat surrounds a castle or other large dwelling, and it can also encircle a small town, village, even a city; but we will leave the specifics up to you--after all, it's your story to write. There is, however, one requirement: you must tell a story in which there is a reason to cross this moat.
