While checking our Twitter account today, we noticed that we had a new follower — Rory O’Sullivan, a writer with Sabotage: Reviews of the Ephemeral, a U.K. site where the Silver Birch Press Silver Anthology was nominated for Best Mixed Anthology (winners will be announced later today during the Sabotage Awards Party — a sold-out event at The Book Club, London).

When we followed Rory O’Sullivan‘s link to the Sabotage site, we were stunned to find a lengthy, in-depth rave review of the Silver Birch Press Silver Anthology. Thank you, Rory. Thank you, Sabotage Reviews!

Below are some excerpts from the Sabotage Review:

Here’s an idea: invite some of your colleagues in the writing scene to submit individual pieces of short fiction, novel excerpts, verse, screenplay and other literary minutiae – all of which must honour a pre-determined theme – collate them, shuffle them into a polished sequence, then sit back and watch your anthology receive all the plaudits it deserves.

Unfortunately, we’ve been beaten to it. So we’ll have to make do with Silver Birch Press showing us how it’s done…

For all its brilliance on a micro scale, it’s easy to lose sight of the anthology’s vastness. I really have barely scratched the surface. It weighs in at a hefty 240 pages, and features no fewer than 62 different contributors…

One outcome is that I’ll be following many of the names this anthology has brought to my attention, their work blazing a silver trail that I urge you to explore with as much curiosity as I will be.”
