Not all tales can be told in a thousand words or
less. So we're introducing Gut-Shots—stories in the 2k-range that hit folks one
of three key ways: 1) Their humor makes us “bust a gut” 2) Their dark edge
kicks us “in the gut” or 3) The subject matter makes our “gut feel queasy.”
Gut-shots are like FFO’s older brother—who just
got outta prison—so he’s got lots a reasons to make up for lost time.
Short-term we're presenting Gut-Shots by "invitation only." We'll be launching with Chris Roy and his suspense-thriller "Marsh Madness" on Wednesday, March 27th, 2019. And we’ve got tales by Matt Phillips, Mark Westmoreland, and Roy Dorman strainin’
to break loose from the barn.
We’re shootin’ to make Gut-Shots a regular
feature. So once you gotta taste? If you’ve written for Flash Fiction Offensive—and
you know us and we know you? Feel free to send us a query at: ffoeditors.2019@gmail.com
Meanwhile Flash Fiction Offensive will
maintain its historical 1,000-word max cap. You can find FFO’s current 2019 Guidelines

See you in The Gutter!
