#14 : Philippine Speculative Fiction Sampler

Which can be found right here.

I'm not sure where I found the link to this, probably from one of the lists you all have put up. I'm just boggling, one at that I haven't posted since July, the other at how amazing some of these stories are.

Some are urban fantasy. Some are paranormal. Some are far-future SF. One (my favorite), a post-apocalyptic romance called Keeping Time, is an all-too-real example of Things People Just Should Not Mess With. The Ghost Story made me cry at how lies and misunderstandings can twist lives so horribly.

If you have an hour to kill or just want to read some fantastic short stories (I started in the position of the former, as I'm not normally a short story fan), go by and take a look. Highly recommended.

Thank you - I've read a few of these now b/c of this link and they were really interesting/good and not something I would have normally read!
