Discussing the anthology, Nisi Shawl had this to say:
“As one of speculative fiction’s swelling number of authors of color I have spent years wanting so hard to put together an anthology just like New Suns. We are legion! And our stories are as diverse in range as they are unheralded in the genre. Nearly everyone I asked to contribute told me that at some point during the creative process they’d thought what they were writing would never be published, for various reasons: too angry, too light, too long, too weird. Expectations of writers of color can be even more constraining to us than they are for our white colleagues, so it was a great pleasure to be able to charge right over them! Getting these stories out to you is a major joy, and I’m so glad you get to read them now.”
