Flash Fiction Flash Fiction And More Flash Fiction

Flash fiction is a wonderful thing.  A writer can write about any and every situation in life.  Flash fiction is the human condition at 300 to 1,000 words a pop.  And the Old Soldier has plenty of flash fiction for you on this site.

Not only that but if you write flash fiction I want to see it.  Now don’t send me anything until March 1, 2012.  On that date this magazine becomes a paying market.

You can’t beat that with a stick!

Then along with all this great flash fiction and a place to showcase your own flash fiction, there is the Pittsburgh Flash Fiction Gazette’s special editorial blend of articles, commentaries, sexology and the nude female form in all its glory.

Did I mention flash fiction?

Flash Fiction As A Second Language

Flash fiction is the reason that the Old Soldier publishes the Pittsburgh Flash Fiction Gazette.  Yes, a visitor to this magazine will find commentaries on the world we live in, articles on blogging and writing and photo studies of the nude female form.  But without flash fiction, this publication would have no reason for being.

I like to say that this magazine is the online Playboy Magazine for short story readers and writers.  That’s pretty accurate.

Flash fiction is a language all its own.  It is the language of brevity.  It is the language of conciseness.  Above all it is the language of suggestion.  There are plenty of examples of this second language on this blog.

Read.  Study.  Write.

PFF Gazette: 2,803 Hits So Far This Month

The word is getting out about the Pittsburgh Flash Fiction Gazette, the most dynamic flash fiction publication on the internet.  Readers are invested in the content: flash fiction, commentaries, articles about writing and blogging and the celebration of the nude female form.

But at the core of the increasing readership for this magazine are the Guest Writers who want their work published here.  This magazine is published for writers by a writer.

The Old Soldier knows the difficulty of being a writer, who does not make a living at writing, in this age of information overload.  Let us continue to do our work as witnesses to the human condition.

Read.  Study.  Write.
