My Short Story "Karma" made it into this anthology that pulls together the monthly winners of a writing contest hosted on LinkedIn. Besides giving Aspiring Writers a whole lot of practice, it gives them a whole lot of fun as well. And, with any luck, the readers enjoy it too.
Because each month had either a theme or a genre, the collection is quite varied. The word count limit (715 words) keeps the stories crisp and I think there will be something for everyone in this book.

I'm biased because one of my flash fiction pieces is included in this anthology, but this really is a diverse collection of flash fiction. I'm impressed with the stories these authors told in 715 words or less - not an easy feat.
I think this anthology is a great encouragement to aspiring writers, and the winners within this book have shown their writing talents and creativity in different ways. Congrats to everyone involved.
