Description
What if you had different authors each write the same story? What would each of them bring to the piece in terms of style, tone, and resolution? That’s the question this anthology sets out to answer.
Reading 5X5 asked twenty-five authors to tell five stories in five different ways. We started with story briefs in five different genres – each brief with just the basic information required to tell a story. Then we asked five authors to write that story, each in their own way. The result is twenty-five great, fascinatingly different stories.
The anthology includes not only the 25 resulting stories, but the original story briefs, and story notes by each author and brief writer on what was hard, what was easy, what they expected, and what they found.

Marketing Plan
Available as an e-book (EPUB and MOBI) and trade paperback, in two editions:
Readers’ edition - just twenty-five great stories by twenty-five great authors.
Writers' edition - Everything in the Readers’ edition, plus two extra stories, the original story briefs, and extensive author notes for each story and each brief. 100 pages of extra material specifically intended for writers! (This is the NetGalley edition)
There is a dedicated website for the anthology (x1.Reading5X5.com), which will include the briefs, two bonus stories, author interviews, and the opportunity for writers to post their own stories written from the briefs. As of the end of January, the site will post a new 5 question author interview every week.
The anthology is promoted on social media as #Reading 5X5, lead by @Metaphorosis.
Guest posts on well-known blogs are being scheduled as well.
