Flash
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?

Nothing to See Here
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.Complete![Five Words & Other Stories [12 Genre Months 2018 Collection]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/175669968-256-k23268.jpg)
Five Words & Other Stories [12 Genre Months 2018 Collection]
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.Complete
OCR is Not the Only Font
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.Complete
