In our busy 21st Century lives, burdened as they are with electronica and specialty coffees, there seems to be less and less time to sit down and read. Where does one find the time to not merely scan a story or dutifully bookmark it in our device of choice for a later reading that we never actually get to, but actually finish a tale, or two, from beginning to end without interruption?
Give me a fish! and other stories that are perfect for even the shortest toilet or public transit trips addresses this need in the reading market, utilizing those seconds that people never even realize they have. All of the stories are designed to be read during what would otherwise be time wasted, such as: waiting for a bus, peeing (or in line for the loo at a busy event), while on hold, during television commercials, waiting for a kettle to boil, or one of many other time-stealing activities.
Most of the micro-fictions are a mere paragraph long. The short and non-fiction stories range in reading time but most are well under eight minutes, ideal for when you're in line at the grocery store on a Saturday morning and have exhausted all the juiciest tabloid headlines.
If you fill your unwanted seconds with any reading material this year, make it Give me a fish! Even if you hate it, how much time did you actually waste?
