Member’s Story Online

James A. Stewart has had a story published at Short-Story.Me!.The rather dark yarn is called For One Night Only and can be accessed by clicking here.

Anthology Cover

The cover for the anthology was meant to be a burnished gold effort, but when the proof copies came in the pixels looked poor. So, in order to keep the project on track for the launch night on 20th November the decision was taken to invert the original gold and black design. If you want to get a sneak preview of the cover, click here.
