The Ways of Walls and Words

A Tor.Com Original

By: Sabrina Vourvoulias

Anica and Bienvenida pass prayers and small comforts through the gaps in the prison walls. Incarcerated by the Inquisition for the faith she won't surrender, Anica longs for solace for her family and freedom for herself. And Bienvenida, heir to her mother's Nahua magic, now practiced out of sight of the Spanish religious authorities, will trade a great deal for the fragile chance at friendship and snippets of poetry.

Skin in the Game

A Tor.Com Original

By: Sabrina Vourvoulias

Three kinds of people live in Zombie City-La Boca Del Diablo: the zombies, los vivos, and the ghosts. Officer Jimena Villagrán, not truly at home with any of these groups, patrols the barrio for stalking monsters. Magic con men and discarded needles make this beat hazardous enough, but the latest rash of murders threatens to up the ante by outing the horrors of Jimena's personal history.

Fat Girl in a Strange Land

By: Jennifer Brozek,Anna Dickinson,Sabrina Vourvoulias

For every supermodel, there are thousands of women who have heard "Why don't you just eat less?" far too often. Except as comic relief or the unattractive single BFF, those women's stories are never told. Crossed Genres Publications presents Fat Girl in a Strange Land, an anthology of fourteen stories of fat women protagonists traveling distant and undiscovered realms. From Guatemala, where a woman dreams of becoming La Gorda, the first female luchador, before discovering a greater calling in "La Gorda and the City of Silver"; to the big city in the US, where superhero Flux refuses to don spandex in order to join her new team in "Nemesis"; to the remote planet Sidquiel in "Survivor," where student Wen survives a crash landing, only to face death from the rising sun. Fat Girl in a Strange Land takes its characters - and its readers - places they've never been. TABLE OF CONTENTS: Sabrina Vourvoulias - "La Gorda and the City of Silver" Lauren C. Teffeau - "The Tradeoff" AJ Fitzwater - "Cartography, and the Death of Shoes" Josh Roseman - "Survivor" Brian Jungwiwattanaporn - "The Right Stuffed" Katharine Elmer - "Tangwystl the Unwanted" Bonnie Ferrante - "Flesh of My Flesh" Rick Silva - "How Do You Want To Die?"
