Announcing AWAKENINGS: The Anthology (and a Giveaway)

Posted on November 20, 2018

Earlier this year we published six original short stories online for free and as standalone ebooks, all under the theme of “Awakenings.” Today, we are thrilled to announce that we have collected each of these short stories in an anthology, so you can get ’em all in one sweet package!

An unlikely volunteer in a magical war. A young African American girl who “wins” a competition to host an extraterrestrial. A girl with ice in her heart, and another with an ancestor on her back. A cybernetic detective, and an Empress facing the first Choice of her life.Awakenings collects six short stories of different revelations, including:

  • “When the Letter Comes” by Sara Fox
  • “Nussia” by Michele Tracy Berger
  • “The Girl With The Frozen Heart” by Y.M. Pang
  • “Running” by Itoro Udofia
  • “Phantom Limb” by Reiko Scott
  • “Timshala” by Leah Cypess

All stories originally edited and published by The Book Smugglers.

    Hi Tammy – we have sent the ebooks to our backers on the 11th and I just checked and yours was included! Maybe check your inbox or junk folder?

    I have not read all of them so I do not have a favorite but enjoyed the 1-2 that I did read.
