Flash Fiction chosen by Amanda Saint.

“ Womannequin” by Jane Roberts via FlashFlood

So much said in so few perfectly chosen words about the sadness of a woman who has become lost to herself in a wave of body bits consumerism and youth-worship.

“ A Waste of Time” by Tracy Fells via The Word Hut

The tension that carries through the whole story is palpable from the very first line and I was immediately drawn in and had to know what what was happening. The end came as a real surprise too.

“Opposites Detract” by Cath Bore via THE FEM

Sensuous, beautiful use of language that really evoked the sultriness of summer and bleakness of winter and used them to great effect to mirror the personalities of the characters.

“Blank Canvass” by FJ Morris via Litro Magazine

A brilliant voice coming through and I really felt for this character straight away, which is such an achievement in flash fiction.

The Power of Imagery with Nina Schuyler

September 12 & 13 on Zoom
Enrollment closes Thursday, September 3 at 7:00 PM Pacific

If your descriptions are vivid but your stories still feel thin, this workshop is for you.

Join award-winning author Nina Schuyler to learn the difference between description, which tells a reader what things look like, and imagery, which carries plot, character, and meaning at the same time.

In just two days, you'll learn to choose images that hold emotion without naming it, pair them so each one deepens the other, and build patterns that gather meaning as the story moves.
