Writing Flash Fiction

Stories don’t need to be long and intricate sagas to captivate a reader. Challenge yourself to write a complete story in under 1000 words! This class covers varying lengths of flash fiction with the aim to elevate your skills.

This class is taught by a graduate student in the University of Missouri-Kansas City’s MFA Program in Creative Writing.
