Dreams Come True Anthology Volume One: Stories for the Campfire Arriving on Halloween

default-featured-image

A few days ago we were contacted by Kya Aliana, a twenty-year-old published author and founder of Aspirations Press, home of the Dreams Come True Anthology. The anthology is comprised of stories written by young authors ranging from 7 up to 18 years old, all new to the world of horror, suspense, and thrillers. When she asked if we’d help promote Volume One: Stories for the Campfire, arriving in eBook format on October 31st, of course we jumped at the chance!

Kya told us, “You will find these pages filled with talent, aspirations, dreams, good stories, and non-stop adventures through the wild imaginations of today’s youth. This is a must-read anthology for kids and adults alike, and especially anyone and everyone who loves and is involved in the horror community.”

She also explained the mission behind the Dreams Comes True Anthology and Aspirations Press:  “In our world today, it’s essential to reach out to our youth and demonstrate what is possible. We need to be an example of how the world can still be a playground. It’s important to offer them an intelligent world to which they can escape — called books! Reading! Stories! I hope you will join me on my mission to introduce them to fellow authors and readers who support and encourage them to be brave enough to write down their thoughts and stories.”

The anthology has 22 authors contributing stories and a special introduction by New York Times Bestselling author Jonathan Maberry (Ghost Road Blues, Rot & Ruin). The Dreams Come True Anthology Volume One: Stories for the Campfire e-book is available for pre-order for Halloween, and the paperback is on its way.

Synopsis:
Gather ’round the campfire, or snuggle into bed, or maybe just curl up on the couch with a nice cup of hot cocoa, and delve into the Dreams Come True Anthology! You will embark on an unforgettable journey via the young, talented, and fresh new voices of today. These are the future voices of their generation, the premier authors of fiction!
