You might be wondering... what is flash fiction?

 

Generally speaking, it's a story that's under around 1,500 words. 

​

There are lots of extra categories and technicalities to dig into if you want - but especially if you're just starting out, that's the most important thing to know!

 

You can find out more about flash on our blog, along with reading recommendations, tips and loads more!

Flashlit is all about creating a framework to help you write when writing is tough - reminding you that you're not alone, and helping you get over that first hurdle and start coming up with new ideas. â€‹

 

It's also made to be as flexible, accessible and affordable as possible, so that you can keep writing no matter what.
