Flash Fiction chosen by J. A. Knight.

“Three Ways to Eat Quince” by Michelle Ross via Word Riot

Vivid, disconcerting tale of alienation and the desire for connection. Brilliant use of metaphor.

“Machine Gun Etiquette” by Tom Leins via People Holding

Skillful structure and a spare prose that packs a punch. Like bourbon, neat.

“Off Days” by Shane Jones via The Adroit Journal

A funny and surprising story that strikes at the heart of regret.

“Appassionato” by Richard Newton via Narrative Magazine

A master class in structure, setting and character. Just lovely.

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.
