The Friday flash fiction movement has been going for more than two years now and writers from around the world have joined in, contributing short stories that are as varied as they are clever. There are funny stories, fantastical tales, satire, wit and more.
Flash fiction is an excellent challenge for the budding writer - it hones editing skills, it tasks the vocabulary and, if you keep it, it's an excellent disciplinary take to take up.
Why not try it for yourself?
