Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (October 2016). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

We look at a broad range of speculative fiction and subsequently are looking to publish a bit of a grab bag of works that we like. We may come up with a title for the edition by the time it is released, but this will be chosen after the fact and we won't have a bias toward picking certain stories because they are more "in-theme" with the other acceptances.
