The history of fiction has been dominated by the novel and the short story. But now a brave new genre has emerged, very brief fiction. Flash! identifies the qualities that make for excellent flash fiction, demystifies the writing process and guides writers by exercise and example through the world of the very short story. John Dufresne's characteristic warmth, wit and humor remind writers of the joy in the creative process, making this a perfect guide for any writer interested in trying a new form.
