Anthologies

In 2017, Coastal Dunes began publishing anthologies of our members’ short works of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. At present, all five volumes are available in paperback. Additionally, volumes 2 and 3 are also available in Kindle format via Amazon. The links to purchase our anthologies in either format on Amazon are provided below, next to each anthology book cover, to take you directly to the anthology.
