Cover for Triumph Over Tragedy Anthology

A little over a week ago, I wrote a blog post here titled "Anthology for Victims of Sandy."

The idea was a simple one. See if we could get some authors to write and donate some stories for an anthology, sell it, and donate all the money to the American Red Cross to help the victims of Hurricane Sandy (many of whom STILL do not have power).

The response was astounding.

The author list as of this moment:

• Robert Silverberg (Hugo and Nebular Award winner)
• Marion Zimmer Bradley (Locus Award winner) (donated by the MZB Literary Trust)
• Elizabeth Bear
• Michael A. Stackpole
• Timothy Zahn
• Tobias Buckell
• Bradley P. Beaulieu
• Philip Athans
• Stephen D. Sullivan
• Rick Novy
• Jean Rabe
• Mark Lawerence
• Maxwell Alexander Drake
• SM Blooding
• Erik Scott de Bie
• Alex Bledsoe
• R.T. Kaelin
• Ari Marmell
• Jaym Gates
• Pamela Turner
• C.S. Marks
• C.J. Henderson
• Marian Allen
• Bryan Young
• Donald Bingle
• Janine Spendlove
• T.L. Gray
• Steven Saus
• Addie King
• Vicki Johnson-Steger
• Tracy Chowdhury
• Doris Stever

If you are an author looking to contribute a story, feel free to contact me at rtkaelin@terrene.info. Or send me a message via Twitter @AuthorRTKaelin. Anthology details: 3-5k words in length (after all, we want to get this together quickly), genre independent, appropriate for all ages. As this will be an ebook only, total length of book will not matter. I'm guess we'll be pushing 200k when all is said and done.

If you wish to buy/contribute, visit the anthology's site at IndieGoGo.com

The donation page has only been up for a couple days and we've hit almost $500.

Now, as to the cover reveal for the anthology (which I had to get together quickly as the SFWA Bulletin is doing a write up of this in the December issue:

To get it out as quick as possible, and to allow us to get as many stories in it as possible, it will ONLY be available via ebooks. No paper cost means we can give people a lot for their money.
