Have some time to kill while you're waiting for whatever it is you're waiting in the public?
Sick of screen times?
The Short Story Dispenser gives you a printed short story with just one tap! All you have to do is select reading time (1 min, 3 mins, or 5 mins), and lo and behold the magic!
That is if you are currently traveling or living in France (Oopsie!).
The dispensers have popped up in unexpected places where people don't expect to see literature: train stations, bus stations, airports, malls, and more.
Even more amazingly, short stories dispensed are original and curated for readers based on where the dispenser is located.
The Dispenser is expected to be rolling out in the US this year!
The Dispenser is made by the French company Short Edition, the publisher of short story literature, and it's an innovative way the publisher adopts to bring its authors and their stories to wider audience.
