Personal Bests Journal Issue 1 (Paperback)

Paperback. Personal Bests Journal has been set up to publish each writer's own choice of his or her absolute best story, regardless of its length (within reason) and of whether or not it has been previously published. Selected from more than 130 submissions, the 31 stories in this first edition of the journal have been chosen and edited by short story writer, novelist and (for 16 years) Prose Editor of Gold Dust Magazine, David Gardiner. The sales income generated will be distributed equally and without deductions to everyone whose story has been accepted. Short story writers have become accustomed to the assumption that granting them an audience is sufficient reward for the time, effort and love that they put into their craft. This volume springs from the belief that the labourer is worthy of his or her hire. It is perhaps the first "Fair Trade" short story anthology. But most of all, it's an absolutely superb one!
