"She Wears the Midnight Crown" is one of our two paired masquerade-themed anthologies. It features 17 stories exploring wlw relationships developing, growing, and changing while the characters attend or participate in masquerades!The collected works in "She Wears the Midnight Crown" feature women and feminine-leaning genderqueer characters, with a spectrum of sexualities, and these diverse individuals inhabit worlds ranging from a science fiction story where an animal's appearance hides human intellect, to a fantasy setting where masks show the role one plays in society, to an iteration of the real world the greatest danger lies in unmasking. Our contributors stretched their imaginations to present innovative stories exploring what a masquerade can be…and, of course, tell rich, engaging tales of wonderful queer folk finding love, companionship, acceptance, or the found family they deserve."He Bears the Cape of Stars" is the companion to this anthology, featuring 17 mlm stories. Duck Prints Press LLC is an independent publisher based in New York State. Our founding vision is to work with fancreators to publish their original work.
