Prisoner, Flash 2-Week Kickstarter Up Right Now!
Remember FLASH IN A FLASH? “The Third Prisoner” (a.k.a. just “Prisoner” — cf. January 21, et al.)? A persistent sort, that pesky prisoner may be making a comeback!
The occasion is a kickstarter for the omnibus FLASH IN A FLASH print compendium from Editor/Publisher Jason Brick, titled WORTH 1,000 WORDS: A FLASH FICTION ANTHOLOGY. Or, quoting the blurb, 100 short stories by 100 authors. Flash fiction at its finest. We have authors from the USA, Canada, the UK, South Africa, Malaysia, China, and the Netherlands. It’s truly become a worldwide celebration of fiction, and we hope you’ll be a part of it. Also, it’s set to be ready for shipping on December 3 — that’s just two weeks from now — at which time the kickstarter will also have ended!
But first it needs to be funded, and that’s the point. For details, donations, one can press here. And there are prizes, including multiple copy opportunities (WORTH 1,000 WORDS is the latest of four separate flash anthologies, another of which, ITTY BITTY WRITING SPACE, cf. August 28 2019, et al., also has a story by me, of zombie addictions) to be found at the site by scrolling down the list at the right side. But, again, one must hurry: as noted above these special deals will be gone in just two weeks, at 12 a.m. (PST) Thursday, December 3.
(Not to mention a generous response could add to our, the authors’ pay.)
My part in the project is the tale of revolution and certain arts of a darker variety, “The Third Prisoner,” as noted above, originally published in LVWonline.org (as Honorable Mention, Ligonier Valley Writers 2008 Flash Fiction Contest, “Zombie Stories”, November 2008) as well as in Brazil in I ANTOLOGIA LUSIADAS (in Portuguese as “O Terceiro Prisioneiro,” Ediciones Lusiadas, 2009), along with a few other places in English. And under the truncated title of “Prisoner,” again noted above, on January 21 this year in FLASH IN A FLASH number 39.
