Flash Friday!

For those of you who write briefly and brilliantly, I’ve found a list of places where you can submit your flash fiction online.

Some are very brief (300 words) and one has a deadline of February 15th, so put forth your best and remember, brevity is a virtue.

Happy writing and have a great weekend.
