Spring Fevers [Kindle Edition]

Matt Sinclair (Editor), Robb Grindstaff (Editor), Cat Woods (Editor)

Book Description

An anthology of short stories, Spring Fevers is an exploration of relationships in their varied states: love -- requited and unrequited -- friendships discovered and lost, family in its many guises, and the myriad places in between. Created by Cat Woods and Matt Sinclair, Spring Fevers arose from their work with the Agent Query Connect online writing community, and while membership in the free site was not necessary for inclusion in the anthology, the ten writers whose stories appear are all members. Authors include MarcyKate Connolly, S.Q. Eries, Robb Grindstaff, J. Lea Lopez, Mindy McGinnis, R.S. Mellette, Yvonne Osborne, Matt Sinclair, A.M. Supinger, and Cat Woods. The debut publication of Elephant’s Bookshelf Press, Spring Fevers was edited by the team of Robb Grindstaff, Matt Sinclair, and Cat Woods, with cover design by Calista Taylor, and book design by R.C. Lewis. A new anthology is scheduled to be released in the fall of 2012.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spring Fevers An Anthology May 2, 2012

By jrisner

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

My sister's short story appears in this anthology and I bought the book out of loyalty to her. I wasn't disappointed.

Each short story is thought-provoking and made all the richer for appearing alongside other--vastly different--stories on the same theme: relationships. Anyone who loves or has loved will find something in Spring Fevers that speaks to them personally. Additionally, this anthology is a collection of nearly all the different genres, so no matter your reading taste, you can enjoy the snippets of goodness found within.

And the best news? I hear tale that a new collection from EBP will be released in the fall!

5.0 out of 5 stars High Quality Writing August 25, 2012

By Critical Reader

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

I bought this book when I discovered the publisher's website and to my delight, found that the writers featured in the collection are exceptionally skilled in their craft. Each story is unique and the book as a whole is highly readable. Solid writing has not been lost in the modern age and there are artists who care deeply about the written word as evidenced by this fine collection of short stories.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Read! August 11, 2012

By Caterina Torres

Format:Paperback

This is a great collection of short stories that left you wanting more each time one finished. Its got intrigue, happiness, humor, sadness, and witty sarcasm. I liked each individual story and got a feel for the different writing styles of each author. Where some stories were light hearted, others were deep. I'd recommend this to anyone who wants a short read on a busy day.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Cut Above November 16, 2012

By G. Cox

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

I found this book free one day when I was looking for new authors.

It is collection of short stories by multiple authors and is far above the norm that I've encountered in e-books. It's really well edited, very professional, and the stories ranged from making the hair on the back of my neck stand up to bringing tears to my eyes to making me laugh out loud.

If the purpose was to get me to go look up other e-books by these authors, it worked.

Each contributor paints a different picture of what it means to be a human being who loves. Each unique tale tells us who we are. Each reader who selects this anthology will be better for having done so.
