Brevity seems easy (after all, we live in a hashtag world). But it’s not. What if 100, 500 or 1000 words is all you’ve got to take a reader’s breath away? Instructor Britta Stromeyer Esmail will examine the craft of writing short-short stories and help differentiate between forms of flash fiction. Understand fundamentals of craft terminology and how these elements function within very short stories. Compose petite prose with a complete story arc while strengthening your editing skills. Develop an awareness of how to read as a writer which will inform all of your writing.
