Hey authors and readers:

Embroidered Worlds presents a living snapshot of imaginative fiction in Ukrainian culture today, including stories that span and cross the speculative genres of science fiction, fantasy, horror, weird fiction, magic realism, and alternate history. The majority of stories included in the anthology will be from writers in Ukraine, and for most of them it will be the first time their work will be translated into English.

Franklin's starting to look respectable. Let's hope the tracking holds and these three storms head on/stay out to sea.

Still want _some_ rain though.
