Copy of 'Monsoon', an anthology from National Flash Fiction Day, 2025, on a garden wall surrounded by herbs and roses.
Look what arrived today!! I'm so happy to be in this book with some of my favourite writers. Many thanks to the @natflashfictionday.bsky.social team, especially @karjon, @cherylmarkosky.bsky.social, the editors, and @jeanettesheppard.bsky.social who did the gorgeous cover. π

Happy National Flash Fiction Day!
For the first time, the plan is to post FlashFlood stories and Write-In prompts here, but our scheduler isn't quite working. La!
We're on the case...and we'll make sure each story gets a post one way or another....

If you're an unpublished flash writer, I can recommend subbing here.
I was first published by FlashFlood in one of its debut slots. It gave me the confidence to keep writing prose fiction.
