This issue has been much harder to put together than the first issue for several reasons. The first two of these reasons are that the amount of submissions has almost doubled from the previous issue and along with this increase in submissions more of the submissions were of really high quality, but I also didn’t realise how much work is actually involved in putting together a quarterly collection of short stories. This amount of work almost took the shine off the project, but every time I felt myself flagging I read another story that showed me the talent out there and this re-energised me to get the issue completed. The collection is another mix of completely different stories from a classic ghost story, The Sled, through a take on Scottish/Celtic mythology, The Spume Horse, eventually ending with a fantasy story, The Watchmaker. Again the best thing of editing a collection of stories from other people is I get to choose what I want to read and share them with others who I hope will enjoy them as much as I do. These are my favourites out of over 300 submissions, and I hope that you enjoy them as much as I do.
