Untimed: A Flash Fiction Collection
Minutes can pass in the blink of an eye. Or eke by slowly, second-by-second—it all depends on your perspective. In the summer flash fiction collection "Untimed", Girls Write Now mentees strip down memorable moments into their essentials beats, capturing time with the pen before releasing it again.

Evening Distractions
For this flash fiction exercise, we started with a prompt and edited down to 100 words. I cut out words that didn’t hold as much significance to the story, and what’s left was intentionally included to help show the reader instead of telling them.
