It’s time to announce the anthology stories for “Migration,” the 2019 QSF flash fiction anthology. These are listed in order of author first/last name. We are not announcing the contest winners, judges’ picks or honorable mentions yet. Those will come over the next few weeks, along with the cover reveal.
We have contacted all of you by email today with more details. if you do NOT get this email, let me know.
