Flash Fiction, as defined by the Mac Millian Dictionary, is a style of writing that involves producing very short pieces of fictional literature. Unlike short stories, flash fiction contains under 2,000 words.

This is a genre that is slightly complex. It's part poetry and part narrative. You're writing experience into a few paragraphs and it forces writers to acknowledge every little detail they're putting down.

I'm going to start this book of Flash Fiction with a 30 Day Challenge. After that, I'll just continue on with a topic of your suggestion or some prompts I find online.

I should also mention that I will not be posting on weekends. : )All Rights Reserved

30 Days, 30 Stories: A Writing Challenge by stvnlra

This is a 30 day writing challenge, a collection of short stories. I've always been a world class procrastinator. The goal of this challenge is to get me writing regularly and, hopefully, break me of the perfectionist thinking that often paralyses me. The Rules: 1. Write and publish 1 short story (flash fic, vignette) per day for 30 days. 2. Stories must be at least 100 words. 3. They can be of any genre or subject matter. Like a lot of writers I have notebooks lying around full of random story ideas. Most of my older ideas are for novels and screenplays. Been going thru my old ideas and picking out the ones I think lend themselves to the short story format. I'm also working on coming up with NEW ideas that I can use here. Never been good at using prompts, but this is a good opportunity to experiment with those. All the stories here are original works written specifically for this challenge. They were written on the day they were published unless otherwise stated. Any similarities to other writers' work is purely coincidental. Thanks & enjoy! ~Laura, 20 Feb, 2018
