Massively excited for this!
Yay! Made the flood with a micro 'Brandi Says the Tooth Fairy Loves Her Best' in the early evening of NFFD. Excited to wade in the flood. Thanks to the team of editors for all their hard work.
Huge thanks to judge Rosaleen Lynch @rosaleenlynch.bsky.social and Ian @freeflashfiction.bsky.social
for this. Chuffed to bits to have won this competition.
This is gorgeous, beautiful imagery.
Love this story by @helennewdick.bsky.social. Clever, funny and a punchy ending.
A micro of mine is in here. Wide range of themes in this issue. I enjoyed reading it.
Read this if you remember travelling pre internet, when the world was your oyster, there was no social media and your folks had no clue about your antics. Actually, just read it.
Delighted that my story, Gravel, was Highly Commended by judge @rosaleenlynch.bsky.social in this fab competition. Huge thanks to Rosaleen and to Ian Rushton at @freeflashfiction.bsky.social 😍

I’ve been watching the walls dissolve for three weeks now. Not dramatically – they simply become less certain of themselves each morning. My neighbour insists it’s just condensation, but I’ve seen the...

No was my sister’s second word. Her first was dada, which Mom said didn’t count because it was an extension of babble. No came after and my sister would yell it until she was red and streaked with sno...
