#KweliLitFest21: In a Flash: Short Prose Led by Kirstin Valdez Quade

Called variously flash fiction, micro fiction, and the short-short, the short prose form has its beginnings in fables, parables, and jokes. We’ll examine several examples of the form, by writers from Charles Baudelaire to Lydia Davis, and discuss how the authors use imagery, compression, and narrative twists. Then we’ll write some very short stories that deliver a powerful punch.

Cost: $100

This workshop is exclusively for BIPOC writers.
