A new weekly journal of fiction from the folks who brought you Electric Literature, Recommended Reading will publish one story, chosen by a diffferent author or editor, every week.

"And in doing so, we'll help give great writers, literary magazines, and independent presses the recognition (and readership) they deserve."
