Flash Fiction chosen by Sarah Vernetti.
“Have a Heart” by Christopher Blaine via The Flash Fiction Press
The first paragraph grabbed my attention. It sets an uncomfortable tone, which continues throughout this modern-day fable.
“Baby” by Stacy Post via Helen : A Literary Magazine
I love surreal stories that involve anthropomorphic plants and animals. This is a suspenseful, well-written piece of flash fiction.
“Untitled” by Alex Salinas via escarp
Escarp publishes Twitter-length fiction. This story proves just how powerful a story can be, even when it’s limited to 140 characters. Beautiful!
“Still Life” by Lane Osborne via The Citron Review
Still Life shows us glimpses of the past, present, and future, all in one brief paragraph. It’s clear that the writer has given careful thought to each word.
Loved these! I was so afraid for Baby. “Have a Heart” was like a terrible dream in a wonderful sort of way, and I must have read “Still Life” five times. I’ve also found a great Twitter account to follow. Thanks for sharing.
