I've always been a fan of text-visual crosses like this, though I'd not heard of Beckley. Thanks so much for the inspiring post! I tried a Beckley-style story too: https://substack.com/@josephayoung/note/c-138906024

As someone just beginning to write fiction, I adored this! I was really inspired by this piece and threw together a little website to share flash fiction in this form: https://flashfiction.neocities.org/. It currently only has one quick one I threw together and Bill Beckley's pieces, so I would love to put the pieces you shared in this essay on this website with your permission. Anyone reading this can also submit any flash fiction of this style to the website!
