Hi everyone,
Just want to share some news about one of our earlier anthologies, INSIGNIA VOL.2.
It has always been one of the shorter collections, with the fewest contributors; in fact the first edition had only 3 contributors and 5 stories… I later added a 6th story (by David Jon Fuller), however 3 of the 6 stories were still all written by yours truly (Kelly Matsuura).
And so, I’ve decided to remove one of my stories and replace it with a new one. I’d like to thank INSIGNIA VOL.5. contributor L. Chan for his intriguing wuxia-inspired story, ‘Petals, Falling Like Memories’. I think it’s a great addition to the anthology, and it’s awesome to have another Singaporean writer along side our champion contributor, Joyce Chng!
If you have previously bought a copy of this anthology on Amazon or Smashwords, you should be able to download the revised edition.
For new readers, Insignia: Chinese Fantasy Stories will be 50% OFF until Feb 10!

Happy Memorial Weekend to our US friends! I’ve just moved back to Japan so am a little sad to be missing the holiday weekend, but I have great memories of trips to Chicago and Lake Michigan in previous years. It’s also pretty nice here in Nagoya. 🙂
I thought it was a good week for a little sale, so how does getting ANY Insignia Series anthology for just 99c sound?
All three anthologies will be only US0.99c (or he equivalent in foreign currencies) this weekend on both Amazon and Smashwords sites.
