In Short: The Art of Flash Essay *Online*

Compelling flash essays capture dramatic moments in our lives that leave lasting impressions, like a shooting star or a meteor strike. Flash essays are concise and contain profound revelations. This writing-intensive course will deepen your appreciation of this innovative genre. We will experiment with story structure, drawing inspiration from narrative and hermit crab essays, and launch into our own. Everyone will have an opportunity to share and receive feedback. Writers of all levels are welcome.
