Update #4: Three weeks left!
Happy Valentine's, esteemed Backers, current and prospective!
We're 60% funded and just under three weeks away from our deadline. We're confident that with your help, we can reach our $3,000 goal in time.
In the spirit of the holiday, show your love for Avery and Tweet/Facebook/blog our 25 Cities Kickstarter campaign and encourage your friends to give.
We'd also like to say a big "THANK YOU!" to those of our Backers who've decided to increase their pledges. Your generosity continues to amaze and humble us.
Have a happy Monday! More updates to come...

Project By
Has not connected their Facebook account.
The Avery Anthology is an anthology devoted to the unpublished short story, edited by Stephanie Fiorelli, Nicolette Kittinger, and Adam Koehler.
Twice yearly, we publish a dozen or more new short stories from established, emerging, and previously unpublished writers. Working closely with artists and graphic designers, we produce a handsome book, each edition of which we hope stands as a notch in the evolving recent history of what young and innovative writers are doing with short fiction.
Hey, all! It's been over a year and a month now since this was funded. When do you expect to have the 25 Cities Project delivered???
