Tuesday’s Torrent: “Apnea” by Annie Q Syed

A few weeks ago I came in contact with Annie Q syed.
Annie, who is a fantastic writer, had to great idea to write a snap shot fiction series. Stories which are inspired on photographs.

Annie's first series, called "Fluck Tuesdays", was a collaboration bewteen Annie and photographer Oliver Fluck.
Every Tuesday for the past 8 weeks Annie published a new story, inspired on one of Oliver's photos, on her website.

When "Fluck Tuesdays" finale came closer, Annie asked me if I would be interested to collaborate with her for a new series of stories.

As I was so impressed by Annie's writings I agreed to participate without a doubt.

Take a look at Annie's writings and be amazed: http://www.annieqsyed.com
