Taught by CB Anderson, whose work has appeared in The Iowa Review, Pleiades, Indiana Review, Boston Magazine, HuffPost, Flash Fiction Forward (W.W. Norton), Brevity, SmokeLong Quarterly, and elsewhere. The New Yorker included her book Home Now in "Briefly Noted" (Dec. 2019), and a collection River Talk was a Kirkus Best Books of 2014.

Are you looking to experiment with structure and style in your flash? Hoping to generate new work? In this generative Zoom session, we’ll examine the braid and the collage.

After instruction and consideration of published examples, participants will craft two pieces based on a series of prompts and suggestions. We’ll talk too about where to submit finished flashes— the market is strong right now— and participants will share work as time permits.

Writers of all genres are welcome. Bring curiosity and willingness to write/revise! Class enrollment is limited to just 16 writers.


COURSE TAKEAWAYS:
  • Knowledge of innovative flash forms/structures.
  • New finished work.
  • Suggestions on where to submit.
  • Sharing/feedback on work generated during class.
