Since 1992, when the original Flash Fiction anthology gave the genre a name that caught on, flash fiction has grown steadily in stature and popularity. Numerous popular anthologies have followed. Five well-known editors of flash fiction anthologies—three who were there from the beginning, and two who will be shepherding the genre into the future—discuss the past, present, and future of flash fiction, especially in regard to its appearance in book form.
Congratulations FlashNanoers!
Congratulations! You made it through November! How many stories did you write that you wouldn’t have normally written?? That’s a win!!
Make sure to play again next year, and check out my Sculpting Flash Fiction class in January if you want to tackle and edit some of these stories!
*New! Sculpting Flash Fiction
SCULPTING FLASH FICTION
An online workshop January 4-24
Editing is the most important part of the writing process. As serious writers, you know it’s through the editing process that we begin to refine and sculpt our messages. But just as writing flash fiction requires a
different set of skills, so too does editing flash fiction. In this workshop we will use the tools of ambiguity and implication; we will learn the different between chipping and chopping; we will learn how to shrink-wrap your text, and most of all learn how to achieve the specific needs of flash fiction as I guide you and other participants to edit your real works in progress.
This will be a 3-week online workshop format class with limited availability. Each participant will have the opportunity to submit 1-2 stories per week.
Tuition: $109
Workshop runs January 4-24
