with Kathryn McClatchy
⚠️ ZOOM-only MEETING ⚠️
JOIN US: Unlike in previous months, this meeting will NOT be held at the Richardson Library; instead, please register below and join us exclusively on Zoom.
DESCRIPTION:
Flash fiction is a hidden gem that we don't talk about enough. Remember the days of reading the Reader's Digest? Bet some of your favorite segments were stories of 300–1000 words.
In this presentation, Kathryn McClatchy will discuss what flash fiction is, why it's important for writers to write in this format, how to go about it, who reads flash, and where can we find more info and resources. All just in time for you to submit for the WGT Fall Flash Fiction Contest (deadline Oct 25).
