Read for Women Bike Book Club. Is available on Hoopla, which I didn’t anticipate at all.

It’s a collection of short stories about bikes and dragons and with a special focus on stories of women and non-binary people. I remember the call for stories and regret not sending something in, but considering the quality of these stories, my writing would have been outshone.

If you like fantasy/sci fi short stories, you’ll probably like this collection.

I just. I want to read every single one of these again. I want to read more from each of these authors. I'm just sad it's over. I loved how each of them took the "dragon" and "bicycle" prompt in extremely different ways. It's also a study in how to write AFAB, queer, nonbinary characters and it was beyond refreshing.

Read more offbeat publications.

A really interesting and diverse collection!
As promised, it delivers a smattering of fantastical tales involving bikes, bad ass dragons, and even more bad ass ladies.

The prompt leads to some really inventive story telling. The first two stories in the collection are probably the most memorable, but I enjoyed all them!
