Compression: Susan Lewis
“As for compression—single paragraph prose poems (many of which can easily be considered flash fictions) make up a significant portion of my work. For me, compression is of supreme importance because of its challenge—amounting to: put up or shut up. Compressed literature is also inherently respectful of the intellect and imagination of the reader, whose active participation in the white space surrounding the piece—all that is suggested but not delineated—is essential to its success.” — Susan Lewis
