Silly, surreal and sometimes serious, these thirty-one very short stories cover a vast range of subjects and themes. Written entirely during July 2012, these flash fiction pieces are accompanied by a deeply unscientific analysis of the challenge that spawned them: to write thirty-one stories in thirty-one days. From lovesick androids to disgruntled minotaurs, the stories in this book embrace Classical mythology, futuristic sci-fi, and a variety of other genres that would much rather have stayed out of the way. Within these electronic pages, you will find disgraced superheroes, unionised zombies, steam-powered clowns and incompetent astronauts. Includes a non-fiction section analysing the results of this month-long experiment.

Prompt Writing: A Collection of Short Stories by NightShifterTales

A random assortment of short stories inspired by writing prompts found on various platforms. Each story is it's own contained little narrative, so everything here is complete. However, I will continue to add to it, so don't worry about the current length. Also, please read the introduction for content warning. Thank you.

Reddit Stories & Other Fiction: 2021 by ActualFarless

A compilation of short stories and flash fiction partially inspired by r/WritingPrompts

A collection of short stories I will write everyday. The topics for each day would be based on the 30 days writing challenge I found on Pinterest.

These are short stories, flash and microfictions, most less than 500 words, the longest about 1500 words. Short, funny, and sometimes fun. Sometimes pointed and sometimes pointless. These stories have been described as eclectic, quirky, and sometimes sad. Take a handful to go.

Are you looking for something to read while you're waiting for the bus, in the doctor's office, or needing a few minutes of distraction? These stories, in a variety of genres, are all fewer than 1500 words long. You can read one and move on -- or can you? Perhaps they will imprint their afterimage in your brain or your heart, and haunt you for years to come.

Weekend Write-In Story Collection by ZonderZorg

This Wattpad Anthology Winner is a collection of fifty-two of the short stories I've written for the Weekend Write-In challenges. Each story is exactly five hundred words long, except for two which specified one thousand words. From the beginning, I have taken the challenge further by using interpretations of the prompt that differ, sometimes dramatically, from those that usually come to mind.

Five Words & Other Stories [12 Genre Months 2018 Collection] by Jeynagrace

Writing the same genre day in, day out can be quite a bore. So to shake things up---to push the boundaries of my writing and creative abilities---I decided to embark on a genre writing challenge. Every month of the year, I write a short story in one genre of fiction. This is the 2018 collection.

This is a collection of short stories done as a writing exercise. This collection will contain only short stories, one shots, and the like, all based on a random three words given to me daily.

A Collection of short horror stories featuring monsters of unknown properties and incomprehensible composition.
