Adventures of a Bookonaut: Ellen Datlow’s Fearful Symetries is a go

Ellen Datlow’s Fearful Symetries is a go

Ellen Datlow and Canadian publisher Chizine teamed up to produce a top notch horror anthology Fearful Symmetries. For a while there it looked like the project wasn't going to make to hit the funding target. And well if Ellen Datlow and Chizine couldn’t pull of that kind of project then what hope for the rest of us.

It seems,however, it was a matter of just casting the call for support a little wider. Neil Gaiman and some other industry heavyweights kicked in some support in the form of tweets and posts and with 33 hours to go we have an anthology fully funded.

Check it out.

Given that Ellen Datlow's anthologies are ALL by invitation only, I really can't see what the problem would have been in getting enough stories! ;-)

When I looked at the Kickstarter 2 days previous they were still thousands of dollars short on funding. So the issue would never have been stories, not with Datlows connections.

I can see where I haven't been clear.
