Author Description

The Ambage... is a coalition of diverse writers, brought together online by their common passion for literature, storytelling, and creative expression through the medium of words. Formed from the combined efforts of Andrew Page, John Matz, Caleb Peiffer, and various others, the community of the Ambage has served as a springboard for creative ideas and collaborative projects since early 2009. Constellations... is the second anthology of short fiction published by the Ambage, the first being X:15, a collection of flash fiction pieces organized around fifteen different themes. Constellations presents thirty-odd short stories written specifically within the genre of science fiction, featuring stories from returning authors such as Nate Deisinger, Will Krueger, John Matz, Andrew Page, and Caleb Peiffer (author of The Second Death), as well as several new authors. From the farthest reaches of space and time to the familiar realms of everyday life; from the cold impersonality of the outside world to the intensely personal worlds of imagination, belief, and the mind-the stories represented here explore a broad network of styles, themes, and experience, honed for the enjoyment of all readers.
