2021 February Flash Fiction Challenge: Guidelines Join us in February for our first ever February Flash Fiction Challenge! Write a new short short story each day in February with daily writing prompts from editor Moriah Richard. Author: Introducing the very first Flash Fiction Challenge! I was officially introduced to this form during my MFA when I had the opportunity to take a course dedicated to it. It immediately hooked me! There’s something electrifying about being confined to such a small space; using words to their greatest potential is the key to a great flash piece. In about a month, we'll start meeting here every day to draft short short stories with writers from around the world. To get us ready to dive in, I’ll be answering a short series of questions here to outline the challenge and set our writing expectations.
