V. RameyThese stories are available in print as well as an ebook or Kindle edition. And they go on for the whole year. Here's what editor and publisher Matt Potter says on the back of the January edition:
So this is the idea...a year of stories, one story a day for an entire year, all written like they're happening now as you read them...and each writer has a set day each month, where the read can watch /read about/discover again/enjoy characters' lives as they unfold across the year.

Excellent idea, Gay. I'll spread the word :)
Sure, send me a book,
I'll take a look,
Cause the weather here,
Feels like Siberia's near.
