Another great anthology from the small press Zombies Need Brains. The theme of this collection is art. Favorite stories were Rings for Their Fingers, all about fairies and cursed jewelry and His Cup of Tea, about a boy who paints teacups that give a girl fantastical dreams.

Varied short stories

A little of this. A little of that. Good stories, well told. Sci-fi, fantasy, straight fiction. I’ll read more by this author.

A good, solid discussion among writers about things most writers worry about (or at least talk about). I don't agree wholeheartedly with all stated among the opinions and advice, but it's a good read for anyone who wrestles with words for a living, especially those of us in the genre-moors. :)

I love short stories anyway, and this was a lovely set of SF short stories.

some heartbreaking, a couple funny, and bonus - new stories in the Ender's Game universe
