Flash fiction is most compelling when it’s alive. Writing about the human body, bringing in the visceral experience of our scars, pain and joy can heighten the tension in our flash stories. In this generative workshop, we’ll be reading flash pieces based on physicality, writing our own physical flashes, and discovering what it is that makes a reader curl their toes when they read a story.
Date: February 22
Time: 11am NYC. Recorded for participants unable to attend live.
Duration: 90 minutes
Zoom link sent shortly after booking and again one day before the event.
