Flash Fiction chosen by Jim Landwehr

“Jar of Hope” by Renuka Raghavan via Flash Fiction Magazine

At the height of summer, and firefly season this story resonated with me because it took me to that yard, that night. The ending caught me off guard and is perfect.

“Behind Curtain #3” by Kim Hanneman via Vestal Review

Stitches as centipedes put in by a sadistic madman with a staple gun provides some great imagery for this encounter in the trauma center. All this and a beautiful, hopeful ending to go along with it.

“Germs” by D.P. Southwell via First Stop Fiction

This one has the feel of an old Creepshow skit. In its brevity, it explores the life and death of a germophobe.

“Prepared” by Chris Ceravolo via Word Riot

If you’re one who has trouble at the ordering line, you’ll want to read this story. It starts so real and goes sideways into a fast food hell, of sorts.

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.
