SOLAR FLARE:

Imagine a Solarpunk future where societies value cooperation over consumerism, where technology solves ecological challenges rather than creating them. SOLAR FLARE will envision a future where humanity has embraced the Earth and learned to co-exist with it, not simply on it, where sustainability is a way of life, not merely a catch phrase. Join us as these stellar authors share their visions of a hopeful tomorrow.

We're looking for unique stories that feature a hopeful vision of the future. Stories should be Earth-centric, not set on alien or fantasy worlds. Solarpunk elements must be present-- the solutions may be low-tech, high-tech or a blend of the two. 

Edited by Patricia Bray & Joshua Palmatier, SOLAR FLARE will contain approximately fourteen stories with an average length of 6,000 words each.  Anchor authors include:

• Chaz Brenchley, 
• Nicole Givens Kurtz, 
• Sharon Lee & Steve Miller, 
• Gail Z. Martin & Larry N. Martin, 
• Kristine Smith, and 
• Lauren C. Teffeau
