Hillfire Press publishes an annual anthology of short writings, and you are holding the very first volume! Open it and be surprised what (less than) 2000 words can do. In challenging times, making art might feel trivial, but it becomes more essential than ever. Hillfire Anthology is a celebration of the craft of writing, and of bringing writing out into the world. It is a showcase of individual talent, as well as of how it is transcended in collaboration. This collection of new writing will challenge and delight you with style, theme, and form, and we could not be more excited to present it to you.
