Microfiction is defined as “a fictional work of extreme brevity that still offers character and plot development.” This month we’re looking for a poignant piece of flash fiction that maintains all the main components of a longer story (characterization, plot development, dialogue, etc.) but still reels us in with a mere 300 words (or less!).. So get to paring down that story, and remember that concision is key!
