Flash Fiction Boot Camp is a 12-day intensive course for serious writers taught by the Editor-in-Chief of Flash Me Magazine, Jennifer Dawson. FMM’s Senior Managing Editor, Elizabeth Hull, will join her.
Each participant must have three unpublished short stories under 1200 words that they have submitted and had rejected from at least one market* prior to enrolling in this course.
Every participant will:
1) have one story edited offline by the instructor
2) have one story reviewed online by peers
3) use one story in a variety of exercises
4) be challenged to write new stories through daily writing exercises.
At the end of each session, selected stories may be published in the Special Features section of Flash Me Magazine’s PDF issues. We have published THREE boot camp stories in this issue!
The next session will be February 1-12, 2010.
Interested participants must register between December 15th and January 15th at flashfictionbootcamp.proboards.com
Participation will be limited to the first fifteen people, so sign up early. Tuition for this session will be $25 US. Discounted rates are available to Flash Me Magazine paid subscribers, to members of the Online Writing Workshop for Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror, and to those who register before December 31, 2009.**
For more information, please contact Jennifer at ffbc @ wingedhalo.com
* I have waived this requirement in the past so please don't let this keep you from registering. The goal is to have stories you feel are ready for publication, and proof of that is a collection of rejection letters. There is plenty of time to collect some rejection letters, so if you don't have any, start submitting!
