As many of you know, I’m a big fan of flash fiction. As a reader, it’s just the right length to be devoured quickly, but if well done, can linger in the mind for some time afterward. As a writer, it isn’t a lot of words to put on the page, but it is a huge challenge to choose the right words so that a very short tale is complete and immersive and engaging.

Today, I’m very pleased to be able to have the honor of my tale–“Interpreting the Prime Directive“–published as Flash Point SF’s 100th story! What a fun milestone for a great venue that focusses on genre fiction–both science fiction and fantasy flash.

Enjoy!
