Writer Advice Flash Prose Contest

As featured on the Writer Advice site . . .

Writer Advice is searching for flash fiction, memoir, and creative non-fiction that grabs, surprises, and mesmerizes readers in fewer than 750 words. If you have a story or memoir with a strong theme, sharp images, a solid structure, and an unexpected discovery, please submit it to the WriterAdvice Flash Prose Contest.

------------------------------------------

I’m not familiar with this contest, but I felt it was notable in that entries will include flash memoirs, a prose form I am currently working in, and a topic I hope to cover here . . . in one of my upcoming blog entries.

I don’t see many flash fiction contests that include the category of memoir, and I welcome any additional flash memoir contest leads that can be sent my way.

As always, I'd love to receive news from anyone who enters and wins this contest.
