The Flash Fiction State Of Mind

It is my argument that to become a good flash fiction story writer a writer or blogger must have a flash fiction state of mind.

What is a flash fiction state of mind?

A flash fiction state of mind is the ability to take an everyday situation and to turn it into a significant event.

Now you will find flash fiction that tries to present big events.  The genre is not built to do that.  The reader knows such a story is artificial; but the small event fits perfectly into the length of the very short story.

And in the very short story you can present life, love or war.  The flash fiction writer will present the telling small moments.
