Flash Fiction

In the run up to the new year, instead of thinking about Sales and Food and Nights out, I have been thinking about FLASH FICTION. At a recent writers retreat the fabulous author Kate Clanchy introduced a group of us to the concept: Ten word and one hundred word stories.
When it should be sleep I am counting words! It's a true test on the concise use of language, especially with the ten word stories:getting to the essence of the story straight away but still with the beginning, middle and an end! It's fun as well, and as such I've dedicated a whole new blog to the idea!!Does it work? (my attempts and the concept) Take a look, see what you think :-)      http://2010wordstories.blogspot.com/
