I'll sometimes write a Flash Fiction piece that relies upon mood.
One of my favorite writers of Flash Fiction is Donald Wandrei, who captures the very essence of what I am also attempting when I write weird pieces. |

Just ran across this wonderful story again and re-read it a few times.
I love this story it's only about 500 words and it's just almost perfect! I Used to Live Here Once by Jean Rhys |

I'm thinking of writing a short book on the writing of Flash Fiction. I also have a set of 50 stories (that need to be edited) in a Scrivener file that are all Flash Fictions. I used to be part of Pam Casto's Flash Fiction workshop (it was done via email) way back around the turn of the century. lol. Flash Fiction is a lot of Fun. You can even make longer pieces out of a series of Flash Fictions. "Fast Fiction" by Roberta Allen is a book on writing Flash pieces and there are several books over at Smashwords on writing Flash as well.

I've been rereading last years The Best Small Fictions anthology the last couple of days.
Just re-read this one and found it on line: Before She was a Memory by Emma Bolden |
