Thank you to everyone who submitted stories. I read every piece that was submitted from start to finish, and the final decisions were especially difficult. I am so grateful to everyone for their encouragement and support of this project.

List of Tomo Contributors...soon to be announced!

Thank you for your patience as I carefully read through all the submissions received for Tomo. I am finalizing my decisions, and all authors will be hearing from me soon. This has been a thrilling and enormous challenge, a summer full of reading, and I have enjoyed diving into each story that was sent for consideration. I look forward to announcing the list of contributors very soon.
