Michelle Elvy pointed out to me that a search for "Men Briefly Explained" on Fishpond lists my book at the top but some distinctly bizarre choices under that - Hitler: A Short Biography? The World of Mining??!

As well as being a fine writer, Michelle Elvy has given a real boost to flash fiction writing in this country with her and Sian Williams' magazine Flash Frontier and now with the announcement that 22 June will be National Flash Fiction Day. Watch out for events in your area, and check the National Flash Fiction Day website for news. Don't forget the National Flash Fiction Competition, which closes on 1 June, either!
