Flash Fiction Highlights

D.A. Bishop - Back to the Valley
Michael S. Atkinson - Rescue
⚙️ Höbin Luckyfeller - Wagered Flesh
Sara Dietz - pocket park
Scott MacLeod - The Longest Day
Stephanie Loomis - The Price of Coffee
Jeannine - Cock Robin Meets Mrs. Sparrow
Michael P. Marpaung - Persian Bargain
