Rooster's Dawn rises in the earnest east of emancipation; sets in the weird west where bros will be bros; goes north to magical, heartbreaking Riga; south to healing gene-transforming pools, telling a space warped romance along the way while catching unexpected times and places in between and way beyond.

Get to know a grandma hacker, a reluctant superhero, a jilted gal in Tucumcari, an insecure synesthetic, a Goddess-killing wannbe witch, an almost blind spacemapper taking one last sentimental journey, a competitive clown, a revivalist, a snake oil salesman, an MMO game designer with a desperate secret and so many more!

And don't miss: As Far As, Collected Stories, Volume 1

Nancy SM Waldman grew up in Texas but now lives in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia with her husband Barry where she writes from the calm solidity of a house built in 1900 with views of the woods and just enough wildlife to keep things interesting. She has an outpost across the Butterfly Bridge from her beloved sister in the mountains of western North Carolina.
