Dust Off Those Drafts - flash fiction

Description

This asynchronous online course is designed for flash fiction writers who want to spend time focusing on revision, writers with drafts waiting to be coaxed into beautiful story shapes. This could be a collection of long-forgotten tales, freshly emerged flashes, or both.

Dust Off Those Drafts includes a variety of revision exercises. Some focusing on the craft of flash fiction writing, others exploring ways to get to the heart of your story. Each exercise comes with accompanying study stories that demonstrate a successful use of the topic discussed. Subjects covered include: titles, endings, openings and more.

Participants are invited to share a work in progress to the forum for peer feedback and close reading from the facilitator. The Flash Cabin is a friendly and supportive space and guidance is provided for anyone new to giving and receiving feedback.
