Chickens Land on Mars... But what happens when authors have too much free time on their hands? A challenge...Craft a story featuring our favorite feathered raptors: the CHICKEN. B'gawk!

Twenty authors deliver in some unexpected ways and live to crow about it. From chickens in space to cozy murder mystery farm yards to schools of magickal thought...guardian angels, chicken shifters, aliens, and feathered matchmakers. Maybe even a non-fiction adventure or two... and more! These amazing chickens come from the minds of twenty cooped-up authors on the edge of cracking...
