Flash fiction is a rapidly expanding literary form with many faces.
These ultra compressed stories, usually limited to 1000 words, are also known as sudden fiction, skinny fiction, short short stories, micro fiction, and more.
But word count is not the only defining factor. These stories are complete. They have characters and conflict; a beginning, a middle, an end. They are tightly woven tales, slyly reaching for your emotions.
When a hot flash touches you, it leaves a lasting impression.
The goal of this blog is to share what I've learned about writing and publishing flash fiction over the last few years.
And to help you reach out with your own stories, and touch others.
Happy writing!
