Description
Tales told through texting. Pinterest prose, LinkedIn lit, irony over Instagram - or Facebook flash fiction. Friend. Follow. Text is a short-fiction anthology that explores the intersection between social media and literature. This book brings together highly creative work whose content and form are inspired by social media - great, often funny writing that moves beyond using digital forms as mere gimmicks.
