Using just two characters in you flash fiction is probably the easiest way to get your feet wet when you start out writing the very short story.  Just remember that there must be a problem, a new problem.  The problem does not have to be a big problem.  It’s better that the problem is a small problem, but it’s a problem just the same.

And a problem must have a resolution: how do things turn out.

It’s the Old Soldier with a running commentary about life, the world we live in, being a blogger, being a writer and all things flash fiction. 

Keep reading and keep writing.
