The Short Review is a fantastic website devoted to the art of short form fiction. Reviews of new anthologies and single-author collections, plus interviews with authors – wide-ranging and always interesting.

They’re currently giving away 5 copies of Rebecca Miller’s new collection, Personal Velocity. Have a look:

The Asham Award anthology Waving at the Gardener (ed. Kate Pullinger) is now available to buy online from Bloomsbury. It’s a  wonderfully varied collection – and I’m not just saying that because I have a story in there! (‘Visitors’, on p119).

For me some of the stand-out pieces are Esther Freud’s account of the First Palestine Literary Festival; Alison Dunn’s ‘Omi’s Ghosts’; overall winner Jo Lloyd’s ‘Because It Is Running By’; Erica Rocca’s ‘Something Small and Understood’ and Margaret Atwood’s ‘Rape Fantasies’. Well worth £6.
