Let me speak directly to the flash fiction writers in the audience. Writing flash fiction is a demanding trade. Flash fiction puts a limit on the number of words a writer can use, whether that limit is 100, 500 or 1,000 words; but it does not put a limit on the subject matter or the universality of the themes that the writer can handle.
Using flash fiction to explore human sexuality presents the flash fiction writer with a subject matter that is timeless and with a world of universal themes. The flash fiction story challenges every writer to bring his or her best writing skills for creating character, locale and storyline if the flash fiction story can be all that it can be: a work of art.
Flash fiction, and flash fiction erotica in particular, was made for the information age. Click on the Sexy Stories tab at the top of the page to experience the world of flash fiction erotica.

Writer Know Thy Self
These are some of the questions a writer can explore to get answers that may provide a river of creativity. The Old Soldier has asked himself these questions and this questioning process has made him a more self-aware artist who wants to continue to learn more about the craft of writing.
The answers to these questions can help a writer find what he or she truly wants to write about, why write about it and even how to write about it. That’s huge.
