Thank you to Your Impossible Voice and Nicholas Alexander Hayes for this review of Show Her a Flower, A Bird, A Shadow.

"Often I find flash fiction is gratifying like a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup. It is a pleasing combination of strong elements in a single tone. It is quickly consumed and quickly forgotten.Pursell gives us similar proportions, but her work is not a saccharine, cloying, or emotive nibble. Instead her pieces are like a well-aged scotch. You could take each of these narratives as a shot but doing so would miss the point of slowly savoring the complexity. "

The dedicated attention to one's creative work means so much. I'm to grateful for Hayes and to Your Impossible Voice, with a special call-out to Managing Editor Keith J. Powell.
