DigitalisObscura This project is believed to be defunct. (January 2012) About Fiction guidelines: We like hard hitting, interesting, but most of all, moving and strongly motivating fiction that bites the edge of people’s conciousness and makes them pay attention. We WANT stories that are only partially resolved - that can be revisited - in fact, once a month we’ll be adding to our own serial, with guest writers included. We WANT stories that have our readers demanding that we come to you for more - and we want stories with strong tapestries - even if you’re only showing us one thread.
