Are these new stories, reprints, or a combination? (I bought a copy, and look forward to perusing it. But the website was excruciatingly slow. Did I just hit it at a bad time, or is that a common problem?)
Anyway, thanks for the info! |

It is a combination of new and reprints. Gee, wouldn't it be great if the website was slow because there were so many people buying it?

This was a great idea for an anthology, and nicely done.
