This session will have us reading and discussing superb examples from published flash, then writing to two prompts aimed at embracing the strange at both the sentence level and the story level. Fun and fast paced! Expect to leave this session with at least one fresh and surprising, delightfully weird new story.<\/em><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friends, I&#8217;m hugely excited to take part in this year&#8217;s Flash Fiction Festival, co-sponsored by Hoot Review and A Novel Idea, to be held online Saturday and Sunday, February 27th &amp; 28th!
