“Darren Hann can really write and he has an active imagination… he is inclined to include everything but the kitchen sink. I will definitely watch out for his prose in the future.”

“A wonderful testing ground for new authors. Not only do we get to see what stories work, but readers get an easily accessible venue to see what authors they enjoy following and might enjoy following in the future. The work of all three authors was fantastical and imaginative, each in their own special way.”
Matthew LeDrew
author of Black Womb and Infinity

“Kenneth Tam is able to take 150 characters and give us what we need. We get exciting battles, characters we care about, and we worry when the odds get to great. We feel for the RNR and the mysterious girls.”
Larry Gent
editor of 42Webs and author of Never Been to Mars
“Such a pleasure…[Scott] Bartlett has been meticulous.”
