This means that all three of our anthology campaigns on Kickstarter have earned this distinction, and we’re really proud of our track record in this regard. Being a Project We Love means a lot more people will see our hard work ’cause we’ll be prioritized in search results, so it’s really great news for our campaign going forward.

We’re also 69% funded. 😀 😀 😀 😀

And now for today’s teaser…J. D. Rivers graces us with an original story inspired by The Three Musketeers!

When We Lit Up the Night Sky by J. D. Rivers

About the Author: J. D. writes speculative fiction where they fall deeply and madly in love and find a dead body, not necessarily in that order.

She collects hobbies as others collect books and has an unhealthy addiction to watching competitive cooking shows.

J. D. lives close to the woods with her husband and the cutest dog in the world.
