Click HERE for five flash fiction writing exercises that I developed some years ago. They should help you get in the mood for writing tight, very tight. (And you may even get a 250 word story out of one of them.)

If you want to use any of this material contact me and there is a very good chance I will say YES.
However, if you just cut and paste into your own blog or whatever and pass it off as your own then there's a very good chance I will find out. Don't fall into the trap of thinking the internet is so vast and expanding so fast (note the fancy internal rhyme)] that no one will know.
