Brought to you by SHORTWAVE PUBLISHING, The Spirited Giving Anthology, SHADOWS IN THE STACKS will feature short stories from twenty-one authors, playing heavily into the themes of the Books Unbanned Initiative

Some deal straight on with political issues like bodily autonomy, gun violence, the mental and physical repercussions of trauma, Others look at things like medical expenses or the housing market. Others take fun looks at religion, the effects of screen time for children, and even obsessions with a favorite author. 

Profits will benefit The Books Unbanned Initiative through the Library Foundation SD.
