Not Just Rockets and Robots, the year one anthology from Daily Science Fiction is now for sale. 426,000 words, 871 pages – as they say, that’s about four novel’s worth of fiction. One humongous book, including my story “The Wishwriter’s Wife”, as well as a heap of other great stuff.

You can find our story, and more about the contest, here.
