Read Some Flash Fiction

From jorindeberben.com

Don't really have time to read novels? Do even short stories seem to take up too much time? I know what you're looking for: flash fiction.
Until a couple of months ago, I'd never heard of flash fiction. Then I came across some writing websites that mentioned them, and started investigating.

Flash fiction is limited to a rather strict word count. There are stories of less than 1000 words, less than 500 or even 100 and 50 words. They can be called flash fiction, micro fiction, nano fiction or sudden fiction.

Ready to sample some?

Find a good flash fiction source. This will save you time later! You can download a couple of stories, and take them with you for when you have a couple of spare minutes. Or you can just read one or two online from time to time. A book could make a nice gift if you want to share.
Good sources: www.flashfictiononline.com, www.flashfictionblog.com, www.everydayfiction.com (you can get daily updates from the last one!)

If you're curious about my work, I've written some flash fiction which can be found on my website.

If a novel is a banquet, and a short story the desert, than flash fiction is the cherry on top. Pop in and enjoy!
(Any ideas on where poetry would fit in this analogy?)
