Flash Fiction Fundamentals
Introductory/Intermediate | How do you craft a great story in less than 1,000 words? To answer that question, we will read and discuss contemporary classics of the genre to understand how they work and what is possible with the flash fiction form. Students will apply what they’ve learned by writing at least one flash piece.
Beginning Fall 2021, we will be adding select in-person classes back to our course catalog. The majority of our classes will still be offered via Zoom.
If a class says IN-PERSON in its title, it will take place in person at our permanent home in Seattle.
If a class says ASYNCHRONOUS in its title, it will take place on Wet Ink, our asynchronous learning platform.
If a class does not have a marker after its title, it will take place via Zoom.
