Local author Lisa Ann McLean has had her recent work, No More At All, chosen for inclusion in a Canada-wide collection of short fiction works that showcases literary and commercial Canadian speculative short fiction.
Since its release in 1985, the ongoing Tesseracts anthologies only select between 20 and 25 submissions each year. Compostela (Tesseracts Twenty) is scheduled for release in the fall of 2017, and is currently available for preorder on Amazon Kindle.
“This day and age, we see so much technology. I think the content of this anthology is very timely and should be an interesting overview of how we visualize the outcome of all this tech,” said Lisa Ann McLean, local author.
“No More At All has two story lines – one near-future, one far-future – and both stories are tied together. I was so excited to receive the acceptance email. It is really an honour to be published alongside so many great Canadian authors.”
