New Year, New You

An anthology of diverse speculative fiction exploring themes of reinvention, re-imagining, and revolution, from Elizabeth Bear, Daryl Gregory, and alumni of the 2023 Viable Paradise Writers' Workshop.New Year's resolutions and self-help gurus ask us to reinvent ourselves-be better, prettier, perfect. But the writers in this anthology know that reinvention contains both potential and pitfalls.One woman's doppelgänger offers her a chance to fix her flaws - for a small price. Against the wishes of her family, an eel-person yearns to reveal her true nature. A showgirl in a backwater lunar cabaret seeks cosmic fame-and will do anything to get it.From cutting-edge voices in science fiction and fantasy, comes a mind-bending collection of twenty-four tales that span the vast reaches of magic and space and delve into the intimate spaces between people.The authors featured in this anthology have had short fiction published in Clarkesworld, Locus, Asimov's, Raleigh Review, Lightspeed, and more. They are joined by two of the industry's most celebrated authors: Hugo and Sturgeon Award-winner Elizabeth Bear and World Fantasy winner Daryl Gregory. Editor Chris Campbell's work has received recognition and support from the Massachusetts Cultural Council for his contributions to Afrofutrist literature.Stories by: Charlotte AhlinElizabeth BearChris CampbellCatherine CastellaniF.E.
