Condor - The Inner Circle Writers' Group Inaugural Anthology 2018

Welcome to this fresh new anthology! Here, you can see raw talent in many forms. I purposely made this first anthology ‘genre-free’ and put as few limitations on it as possible, just so that members of the group could see what could be done. Here, you’ll find super-short ‘flash fiction’ as well as fairly lengthy tales which might serve as the basis of greater novels; you’ll find whimsical fantasy and gritty reality; you’ll find contemporary realism and flowery fancy. You’ll find some writers at the tentative beginning of their careers, and others further along that road. This is a celebration of sorts of the art of writing, the joy of it, the freedom of it. Ours is a lonely job, but a magical one; we are the spellbinders and conjurors of modern times, taking simplistic symbols and combining them in special ways to produce a range of wonderful effects.

Enjoy!
