@scalzi So probably no solo release either?

@LuckyHarms All the stories are individually purchasable, yes.

@scalzi This sounds cool, John. I'm familiar with your work, and I'm a huge fan of Anne Leckie. I look forward to getting to know the work of the other authors!

@scalzi your title totally reminds me of “Slow music for fast times” from https://v4.HOS.com/about

I look forward to reading your story.

@scalzi @ann_leckie if only Amazon wasn’t trying to kill my local bookstore. Let me know when it is available in a non-Amazon format and I will gladly give you and your fellow authors my money.

Still buying your other books at my bookstore of course!
