My flash piece “Memories of Life” was originally published in the now defunct BURST magazine back in 2009. Such is the circle of internet literary magazine life.
Not only has it been republished, courtesy of The Story Shack, but it’s been upgraded with a piece of artwork by Hong Rui Choo that was inspired by the story. You can find them both here.
The Story Shack is I think essentially unique in that their daily-published stories all have commissioned artwork published alongside. And not just any art—art that was crafted specifically for and because of the writing. Seeing the art was a such a thrill, and the site is full of some really amazing companion pieces. I think Rui did an awesome job with it.
