Description

Learn about the world of “flash nonfiction,” a flexible and rich form of creative writing that’s perfect for both new and seasoned writers.

Flash nonfiction is a flexible form of creative writing that overlaps with memoir, essay, and even poetry. “Flash” pieces are short—1,000 words, 500 words, 250 words. They make an impact on readers with precise language, details, imagery, and more.

Writers of flash nonfiction draw on real life experiences, observations, and research. This class offers a brief look at the form and published examples, with prompts to inspire you to create and share new work.
