Are you an adventurous, daring reader? Like to explore new frontiers? If so, this one’s for you.

In this second annual edition, you’ll find nearly 40 of the weirdest, most outrageous, wackiest, scariest, puzzlingest (is that really a word?) short stories submitted for this anthology in 2019. That’s nearly twice the number of stories in the 2018 edition, our first.

You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll be shocked, scared, and maybe even perflutzed by some of the stories you’ll find inside, in many different genres and styles.

But with nearly every story, we know you’ll be surprised.

These stories have all been anonymously selected by a panel of independent judges.

We expect the 2020 edition to be BOULDer (no relation to the city in Colorado), and that’ll raise the bar even higher for the 2021 edition. We might wind up changing “Limitless” to “Loopy” if writers can really let their inhibitions go and let their haywire creativity loose.

But now it’s time for you to quit reading these promo bits, brace yourself and dig in. Have fun!
