Curiosities

These pieces were originally written for a collaborative blog called the Merry Sisters of Fate, where the authors practiced improvisation by writing without using a backspace key. Several of the authors' later novels, such as The Scorpio Races, began as short stories posted to this site.

The book functions as a guided tour of the authors' creative processes because each story is accompanied by the authors' own comments, critiques, and kudos. This format allows readers to see the collaborative dialogue and feedback loop that existed between the three writers as they developed their craft.
