This
is our third anthology of short stories and will be published on April 1st
2013. Themed April Fools.
Our
anthologies are born from a different theme with each publication. The first
being, Valentine’s Day (2012). As you would expect many of the tales
were quite sweet. Yet, we also had stories that endevoured to chill the hearts
of our reader’s.
Our
following anthology was published December 2012, The Holiday Season in
Melbourne. Each unique Melbourne tale satisfyingly different and touching
on a wide variety of holiday seasoned themes.
