Stories to Tell from Lands Far Away


(Picture taken from here.)

Hear ye, hear ye.

After much deliberation, dean and I have finally decided which stories will be accepted in The Farthest Shore anthology. These are:

1. Balancing Darkness- Rodello Santos
2. Hindsight- Paolo Chikiamco
3. Rite of Passage- Dominique Cimafranca
4. The Just World of Helena Jimenez - Eliza Victoria
5. Spelling Normal- Mia Tijam
6. Emberwilde - Nikki Alfar
7. Light - Kate Aton-Osias
8. They Spoke of Her in Whispers - Bessie Lasala
9. In the Arms of Beishu - Vincent Simbulan
10. Wildwater- Crystal Koo

The 11th and 12th story will be a contribution from both co-editors to anchor the anthology. Go forth and disseminate.

Update: As dean mentioned, we're hoping for an August release in the Internet wilds. I'm planning to make this the first of a series of PDF books which you can also read online. Will explain this later.

Here's the actual TOC of the anthology with the finalized story titles:

1. Strange Weather - Dean Francis Alfar
2. Queen Liwana's Gambit - Rodello Santos
3. Emberwild - Nikki Alfar
4. The Just World of Helena Jimenez - Eliza Victoria
5. Wildwater - Crystal Koo
6. Rite of Passage - Dominique Cimafranca
7. Light - Kate Aton-Osias
8. Spelling Normal - Mia Tijam
9. They Spoke of Her in Whispers - Bessie Lasala
10. The Siege of Silence - Paolo Chikiamco
11. In the Arms of Beishu - Vincent Michael Simbulan
12. Brothers-in-Arms - Joseph Nacino

There will be an introduction by yours truly and an afterword by dean with eight original stories, two reprints and two stories from dean and myself.
