Product description

Review

"There is more to Flash than just its brevity, and White provides discerning writers with many lenses through which to understand and explore the diverse range and multiple styles of Flash. This insightful text, a welcome contribution, captures the essence of this important genre." --Opal Palmer Adisa, author of Love's Promise.

"This is a thoughtful book that covers flash fiction from Aesop to podcasts. White analyzes his own writing as well as others' to find those quintessential elements of storytelling that may particularly shine in abbreviated form." --
Hannah Voskuil , flash fiction writer and author of Horus and the Curse of Everlasting Regret

"A well-composed manual for aspiring writers ... White's exercises and advice should also serve as a good spring board for anyone interested in teaching themselves creative writing or wanting to try out a new genre." --
Manhattan Book Review

"A unique and ground-breaking instructional guide and reference that deserves to be a part of every aspiring author's personal 'how to' collection who wants to establish a flexible, varied and successful career as a published writer." --
MBR Bookwatch

"Provides a modern course in all the techniques of notable flash stories to provide writers with all the basics they need to build a reputation on flash fiction." --
Midwest Book Review

"In
Writing Flash, Fred White has compiled a wonderfully compact resource for writers." --Chris Tusa, editor, Fiction Southeast, and author of The Yellow Girl
