Prompted #02 Cover

Here's a new issue of Prompted, Reedsy's literary magazine. An anthology featuring winning works from the world’s most popular weekly short story contest.

You can get it for FREE here (eBook) or buy the printed version ($4.99)

For the cover: this time, we decided to base the illustration on one of the stories contained in the issue. We used CJ Rodger's story 'Diner at the End'. An apparently 'normal' memoir-y scene... hiding a much more interesting setting.
