After The Fall
Small Gods

In a snap, the apocalypse descends, wiping out almost everything.

Almost.

A few survivors struggle in the ruins, fighting until the bitter end.

After The Fall (A Blaze Ward Presents Special Edition) brings together twenty different visions; some hopeful, some desperate, and some just plain weird. Many different takes on what the world might look like after aliens same down. Or the Elder Gods awakened.,

Or if Darkness itself just fell.

Come join USA Today bestsellers and rookies alike as they show you what life might look like After The Fall.

Small Gods.
They aren’t the earth-shakers, but the quiet ones. Or perhaps the loud, brash ones.
We challenged the writers to give us stories without much more than Small Gods.
They came through, as usual, ranging all over the spectrum, as well as all over the emotional map, from the noir of a god created while smoking a cigarette and doing dishes, to the god of pizza delivery (and all the things that might go wrong).
Come take a journey with some of the deities you might not have known until now.
Blaze Ward Presents #6: Small Gods. One of an occasional series of strange and diverse themes.

Cloak and Dagger

Cloak And Dagger.
These words were the inspiration, the dare I put to the writers out there. Create for me art on that theme. They responded with music, words, and excitement.
Science fiction, urban fantasy, or sword and sorcery fantasy. Come explore the many places that twenty-odd visionaries went when they heard those words and enjoy all the bright and dark places you might go.

Nuns With Guns

Nuns With Guns.

I challenged folks to give me a story with that as their theme. Here are nearly twenty authors who answered that crazy call, ranging from fantasy to science fiction. Modern. Historic. Urban fantasy and gritty realism.

Come with us now on an amazing journey into other lands and other minds, as we explore what it means to first become a nun, and then to take up the sword.

Or the gun.

An Interpretation of Moles

Moles.
Seriously?
Yes. Mostly seriously.
Chemists, Zoologists, Dermatologists, Government Agencies, and Mexican Food.
Over a dozen modern authors offer their take on an Interpretation of Moles. Every kind, every definition.
From silly to sublime, this anthology takes you on a wild ride, where the only rule was that it had to include moles. And to be entertaining.
Come revel with us.
