Paragraph Shorts Helps Readers Discover Great Short Stories Enriched With iPad-Friendly Media

paragraph shortsMost of you probably have lots of distractions and relatively little free time, so short stories could be a great way to get some fiction into your life they're more manageable, anyway, than a big doorstopper novel. That's an idea that I see again and again when people talk aboutthe current state of short fiction. And yet ...when was the last time you actually read a short story? We certainly haven't seen anything like a big resurgence of interest in the form.Ziv Navoth, founder and CEO of a startup called Paragraph, is hoping to change that with a new iPad magazine called Paragraph Shorts, which aggregates short stories from publications like The Paris Review, The New Yorker, The Moth, and The Guardian. The stories are hand-picked by the Paragraph team, with added images, audio, and video, as well as social networking features.
