Kickstarter: Muslim Futures – I’m in it

I’m really pleased to be publishing my first short story, and it’s with an amazing group of authors, who have much longer pedigrees in fiction writing than I do. And some of the stories (alas, not mine) will also be published a comic book.

It’s on Kickstarter here.

It runs the whole mont of Ramadan, and the description is:

Muslim Futures is a prose fiction anthology AND a graphic novel anthology – that’s right, we are releasing 2 entirely different versions of this book here on this campaign – featuring a multiverse of stories from veteran authors and filmmakers set in aspirational futures for Muslims in America and beyond. Futures where Muslims have all the conditions necessary to thrive, where our experiences are not defined by our trauma or our proximity to violence, as the mainstream media tropes love to do, but where our stories are defined by our authentic values of community care, justice and love. We wanted to tell our stories, our way, in our own words, and create our own futures, full of abundance and belonging.

You can found out more about the authors and genesis of the project on the Kickstarter page.

The rewards are great, and you’ll be supporting a great project.

Here’s a peek at the prose cover, and you can see the comics cover on the Kickstarter page.
