The Writers of the Future anthology series is one of the longest-running science fiction and fantasy short story collections, with 41 volumes published between 1985 and 2025. The series collects winning and finalist stories from an annual contest for unpublished authors, and Andrea G. Stewart is among the many contributors over the decades.
The anthologies have launched careers for numerous science fiction and fantasy writers. Each volume gathers the best contest entries from that year alongside advice from established authors. For Stewart, participation in the series represents an early milestone in her path toward publishing The Drowning Empire trilogy and her other novels.
