Here’s a chance to be an “early reader” for Digital Fiction. You don’t have to review or anything (though I’m sure it would be appreciated).

Digital Fiction specializes in reprint anthologies, so all the stories will have been previously published in pro or semipro markets.

Directly delivered to your Kindle.
