It’s here!! It took 450 submissions, several months of editing, and more Timbits than is probably wise, but we did it! Presenting the newest anthology from Grace&Victory: A Quiet Afternoon 2<\/em>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>
\n

Twenty-seven<\/em> all-new comfy, cosy, low-fi stories! Weather magic, heart magic, memory magic. Princesses that save themselves and Irish robots and Scottish giants. Wistful dinosaurs, protective squirrels, frisky kittens; knitting, broken hearts, shops filled with dreams. And the FOOD – Seafood fresh from the sea, Indian delights made by a mother’s loving hands, unmade cakes, and magic pierogi<\/em>. There is a story for everyone.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

It’s our broadest crop of authors yet, too, with writers from Canada to Australia, Ireland to Zimbabwe, America to India, and a variety of points in between. (One day, we will land a submission from Antarctica. One day.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year was the first time we tried pre-ordering, and I’m glad we did; it increased our sales dramatically. Enough that we were able to double the amount we had planned to donate. We’ve sent $200 to the Indian Residential School Survivors Society (http:\/\/www.irsss.ca\/) and $200 to the Yarrow Intergenerational Society for Justice (http:\/\/www.yarrowsociety.ca\/), in the hope that more people’s futures will hold quiet afternoons. I’ve never been more proud of a project, both from the quality it represents–the hard work and the talent–and the good it has enabled us to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a lovely quiet afternoon, where ever you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
