From Eric T. Reynold's Blog:



Cover Art (c) by Debbie Hughes

The stories are set in the ruins depicted in this cover art. In each story, the woman in the image is the protagonist. How similar are the stories? Ah, that was the experiment. You decide.

Coming soon . . . .

From what I've seen, the stories are much more diverse than you would expect given the tight constraints of the submission call. My entry, "Kehmet's Curse," is set in the ruins of the legendary city Nagdala. Lucia is the sole survivor of the city's destruction more than 3000 years ago. There should be a release date soon.
