Flash Fiction chosen by Grace Black
“Mourning After” by Mark Farley via Unbroken Journal
This is the exact form of micro flash I consume for breakfast. Screw the food pyramid, this is flash built from the ground, layer by layer. Great read.
“The Darkest Blue” by Chris Milam via Maudlin House
Clever turns of phrase and solid prose with a purpose. It’s always a delight to see Milam’s work in print. Clever ink.
“Men at Work #133” by Robert Laughlin via After the Pause
There is lovely juxtaposition in this short bit of prose. A snippet of time that says, ‘read me!’.
“Swollen River” by Fikret Pajalic via Third Point Press
From the title to the ending, everything about this story is executed with deliberate pacing and skill. A joy to read.
“Mourning After”…FABULOUS selection…Thank you, Grace Black.
“‘Men at Work 133”—Bravo. Excellent commentary on tradition vs convenience. I love the raptor vs blue jay line. Great imagery.
