Morning: Flash Fiction

In the 1920s, Ernest Hemingway’s colleagues bet him that he couldn’t write a complete story in just six words. They paid up. Hemingway is said to have considered it his best work. His story? --

For sale: baby shoes, never used. - Ernest Hemingway

When I see these words, I see genius. Read them again. See it?

Come to this workshop and learn to write with meaning and make each word count. We will start by creating flash fiction- telling a story in a page or less. Then we will move to 6 word stories like this one. By the end of the workshop, each participant will have the opportunity to get published! (We will submit 6 words stories online and see if they get accepted!)
Leader: Beth Grosart
