An alternative suggestion: the First Gold Dust Prose Anthology
Solid Gold
The first Gold Dust anthology, containing the best short stories from the first 5 years of publication in the magazine, is also still available to purchase from Lulu.com at £4.05 (not including postage), which is a truly astonishing offer for what we believe to be one of the finest short story collections on the market.
Every issue of Gold Dust is viewed online
absolutely free by over 3,000 readers.
