Defying Doomsday is on Pozible!

Regular readers of my blog will hopefully remember me announcing Defying Doomsday, the anthology I’m editing. Here’s a quick reminder:

Apocalypse fiction rarely includes characters with disability, chronic illness and other impairments. When these characters do appear, they usually die early on, or are secondary characters undeveloped into anything more than a burden to the protagonist. Defying Doomsday will be an anthology showing that disabled characters have far more interesting stories to tell in post-apocalyptic/dystopian fiction.

The anthology will be varied, with characters experiencing all kinds of disability from physical impairments, chronic illnesses, mental illnesses and/or neurodiverse characters. There will also be a variety of stories, including those that are fun, sad, adventurous and horrific.

The stories in Defying Doomsday will look at periods of upheaval from new and interesting perspectives. The anthology will share narratives about characters with disability, characters with chronic illnesses and other impairments, surviving the apocalypse and contending with the collapse of life as they know it.


If that sounds exciting, you will hopefully want to check out our Pozible campaign where you can pre-order the book (due out in 2016) or choose some other goodies. To check it out visit: http://pozi.be/defyingdoomsday.
