Here’s another great initiative to support Canterbury. Anna Caro and J.C. Hart have put together a short story anthology – Tales for Canterbury – with stories donated by international and New Zealand writers. Contributors include Neil Gaiman, Sean Williams, Jay Lake, Tim Jones, Tina Makereti, Helen Lowe and me. It’s being published by Random Static Press in both print and ebook forms and all profits will go to the New Zealand Red Cross 2011 Earthquake Appeal. For more information and to watch the promo video, visit talesforcanterbury.wordpress.com
Isn’t the cover beautiful? The anthology is expected to be available by late April, but you can pre-order now. ($12 for the ebook and $24.95 for the print version – I’ve ordered my copy already). As of this morning, the editors had raised $880 towards their target of $5000.
Brilliant idea and warms my heart.
Update on the fund-raising – $1,248 as at Sunday 27 March 2011.
I am so impressed by how quickly and how well Cassie and Anna have pulled this together! And I am looking forward to being in the anthology with you & so many other fine writers, Janis.
