Ukazała się antologia literatury na Twitterze [notka]

Poniżej tekst informacji, jaką za chwilę będę rozsyłał do mediów. Myślę, że stanie się to dobrym zwyczajem na blogu – zanim wyślę, opublikuję na blogu z opisem [notka]. Będzie można samemu zestawić sobie atrakcyjność informacji tu publikowanych z tym, czy za takie zostały uznane przez profesjonalistów.

Kilka dni temu ukazała się antologia mikroprozy publikowanej w serwisie mikroblogowym Twitter – #VSS Anthology Volume 1. Składa się na nią ponad 150 utworów napisanych przez 37 autorów z całego świata. Inicjatorem i wydawcą książki jest Brent Millis, tworzący pod pseudonimem Made in DNA.

Literatura tworzona na Twitterze jest jednym z najciekawszych przejawów literatury cyfrowej. Paradoksalnie, ograniczenie jakim jest 140 znaków, nie doprowadziło do zaniku ale wybuchu energii twórczej. Wpisy literackie na Twitterze można odnajdywać posługując się znacznikami (tagami) takimi jak #sixwords, #6wordstory, #haiku czy #twitfic.

Olbrzymią popularnością cieszy się tag #vss (very short story). Został on po raz pierwszy użyty przez jednego z najbardziej cenionych autorów twitteratury, Seana Hilla (@VeryShortStory). W porównaniu z innymi formatami, wpisy z tagiem #vss nie są złotymi myślami, do czego łatwo sprowadzić może 140-znakowe ograniczenie, ale historiami, często zaskakująco bogatymi. »»»

Fan of Twitter fiction? Check #VSS Anthology

It’s a great news for Twitter fiction lovers. #VSS Anthology Volume 1 has just been published, thanks to the big effort of Made in DNA, who initiated the anthology, called for entries and edited the stories into this great book.

Twitter fiction is a fantastic literary phenomenon. It shows how well writers can cope with such a limit as 140 characters. And it brings great results. Many people write fiction on Twitter and the most popular way to follow it is #vss tag. It was originated by the Twitter fiction guru, Very Short Story and quickly adopted by his fans and fellow writers.

This anthology has one outstanding benefit I was not aware until I read it – opposite to Twitter stream, where you read great stories accidentally, you have all the best of it presented the way it should be: organized. Every author in this book has his exceptional voice and brings his unique world to the reader. Just read a couple of his stories in a row and you’re there completely.

Having in mind that Twitter just makes you blink and you’re away in the archives, anthologies like this one have an incredible value.

The book is available for free from Smashwords. You can read it on-line or download to your device. There are many formats available, including ePub, mobi, rtf, pdf and plain text, so I’m sure there is one to fit you e-reading device.

#VSS Anthology is out, but the authors are on. Check what they’re writing about right now on Twitter.

PS. I’m really glad I’m part of this anthology and was helpful in designing the book’s cover. »»»
