    'Speculative short fiction is a particularly challenging artform. How does one make engaging characters, establish original worldbuilding, and have a plot all in the space of 5000 words or fewer? We loved the ambition and scope of all submissions – each one was committed to exploring their own unique concepts and perspectives. We found the strongest pieces were those which were whole stories in and of themselves; and those with a light touch and a sense of wonder, that gave the impression of worlds fully formed without spelling out the precise details of their settings.'
