I won't comment on my own entry for this anthology (because I'm British and shy!), but I am keen to say how much I love the other stories. There's such a variety, from the scary and timely warning of 'Woodless' to the adorable romance of 'For the Trees', and the vivid postapocalyptic vision of 'Razorback'. The book's full of interesting, front-placed female characters, diversity, and modern and fairytale stories that make you think. There's shared memories, shared fears and shared hopes for how the future might be.

Thoroughly recommended!

I enjoyed every single one of these short stories. Such diversity in both genre and characters! Each story felt fresh and exciting, and I'm greatly looking forward to further Writing Tree publications.

Lovely collection of short stories (and one poem) around the setting and magic of forests.
