What is Flash Fiction? Flash Fiction is a work of fiction of extreme brevity. This book is a funny, entertaining, imaginative compilation of my flash fiction with a mix of science fiction and commentary. It is a look at the world through the eyes of the author with a unique world view that is offbeat and provocative through an unusual perspective. Many of these stories and essays were written during the Covid-19 pandemic, as were the stories in my first publication: Flash Fiction. The pandemic is still with us, but we do have vaccines and booster shots. Maybe the end is in sight. I hope so. While not all of these stories are pandemic stories, many are. I am not sure how one writes stories at this time and does not write about it. I know I can't. Still, many of my stories are about other things. Some funny, some science fiction, some fantasy, and some fiction. I hope that these stories entertain you and let you think about other things besides the pandemic. Things like living one's life through this pandemic. One day it will be over, and we can all say we lived through it. If you have enjoyed these stories in this Flash Fiction II book, please consider reading my first book: Flash Fiction. I am currently working on a CIA spy novelette: Dead Drop. I hope it will be finished later this year.

Ten years ago, Jerome Stern, director of the writing program at Florida State, initiated the World's Best Short Short Story Contest. Stories were to be about 250 words long; first prize was a check and a crate of oranges. Two to three thousand stories began to show up annually in Tallahassee, and National Public Radio regularly broadcast the winner. But, more important, the Micro form turned out to be contagious; stories of this "lack of length" now dot the literary magazines. The time seemed right, then, for this anthology, presenting a decade of contest winners and selected finalists. In addition, Stern commissioned Micros, persuading a roster of writers to accept the challenge of completing a story in one page. Jesse Lee Kercheval has a new spin on the sinking of the Titanic; Virgil Suarez sets his sights on the notorious Singapore caning; George Garrett conjures up a wondrous screen treatment pitch; and Antonya Nelson invites us into an eerie landscape. Verve and nerve and astonishing variety are here, with some wild denouements. How short can a Micro be, you wonder. Look up Amy Hempel's contribution, and you'll see.
