Inspirierend und nicht langweilig. Aber ich hätte mir ein bisschen konkretere Tipps für das Schreiben von Flash Fiction Storys gewünscht.

I’ve been a fan of flash fiction since college, but haven’t found a good book about it - examples, guidelines, tips and tricks - until now. Going Short has it all, plus some writing prompts in the back to get you going if you seem stuck. I know it’s counterintuitive, but I feel like I basically underlined the whole book… It’s just that good.

I write personal essays and am totally new to the concept of flash fiction. I bought this book because it was recommended by Windy Harris in her session on flash at this year's Writer's Digest conference. I was hoping this book would be a bit more insturctional and walk me through creating some flash pieces. I thought I'd be writing some flash pieces by the time I finsihed this and I haven't tackled one yet. I was hoping she would give more examples, too. I think I'll have to read it a second time to truly learn from it. I also plan to explore some journals that publish flash.
