Flash fiction has all the elements of a short story, including the power to transform and transport the reader, all in 1000 words or less. In this full-day bootcamp we'll work through techniques for writing very short fiction, examine examples, create, critique and - hopefully - submit. Get your writing pants on - at the end of this workshop you'll have written your very own flash fiction piece!
This class takes place at the Alexandra Writers' Centre in Calgary.
Meghan Victoria grew up in the frozen wilds of Labrador and is obsessed with historical east coast life, all things weird and fantastic, magic, drumming, dragons, the woods, and the list goes on and on. After moving to Calgary, Alberta, she found a writing community that turned into family. Meghan’s short fiction has been featured by Coffin Hop Press, the Antigonish Review, Radical Bookshop + Press, and various other magazines and anthologies. When not crafting new worlds or crying over the editing process, you can find Meghan hiking across far-flung continents, teaching yoga, hosting full moon ceremonies, and snuggling her fat cat, Nancy.
