Next week, we will be releasing a special ebook titled, Hello Gorgeous, ten years of brilliant stories of life. The stories in the book have been grouped into four sections, the first of which is Sun. In the introduction to the book, editor Claire Bell explains:
'Sun stories have a sense of light breaking into darkness and dispelling it. There is energy – sometimes in battle, always with a measure of hope. Sun stories are not necessarily ‘happy’ stories, just as warm sunshine can soothe one day and, by its powerful heat, threaten another day.'
Stories that will be published in this section are:
- 'Fighting For Peace' by Jade Wyatt
- 'Confessions of a Realist' by Emily Maurits
- 'Snakes, Ladders and Green Carpets' by Anusha Atukorala
- 'Just in Time' by Colleen Russell
- 'Yellow' by Clarisse Lim Yong Yi
- 'Hello Gorgeous' by Marion Estelle
- 'Psalm 23 isn't just for Funerals' by Naomi Currie
- 'A different Kind of Victory' by Nadia Konik
- 'My Black Dogs' by Lynda Wake
- 'Closing the Cultural Gap' by Heidi Tai
- 'When Despair for the World Grows in Me' by Tamara Hartford
- 'Quandong Birthday' by June Hopkins
- 'Rodrigo' by Barbara McKay
- 'My Dad' by Ruth C Hall
- 'My Little Ray of Sunshine' by Liisa Grace
- 'A Very Perfect Day' by Charles Yuen
Special anthology, the best of ten years, soon to be released.
There will be another three sections in the anthology: Earth, Air, and Seed. In the coming days, we will be revealing the stories to be published under these sections.
Meanwhile, there is just a week left to Feedback Month. If you haven't already done so, please take advantage of the generosity of our editors. They give their skill and time in order to give feedback on every story draft we receive. It can make a huge difference to individual stories. Even greater, is the cumulative effect this has on producing a better anthology at the end of the year. Wouldn't that be great?
