All marriages are not alike..
Written for the Bradley Stoke Festival
Here were the rules (the important ones, at any rate):
- The story must be a stroke story--whatever that means to you.
- The story must fit entirely on a computer screen. For the purposes of this festival, the maximum number of lines (including title and blank lines) is 18, and the maximum number of characters in a line (including spaces) is 70. Text only, please. (I know. I know. 18X70 would overflow a handheld.)
- What is flash? What is stroke? What is flash stroke?
Flash is very short short story. It may be poetic, but it is fiction, not poetry, not song, not mattress tags or shopping lists or recipes for eggplant parmesan. Stroke is fiction that is intended to sexually arouse the reader. Successful stroke fiction inspires masturbation and provokes orgasm. So flash stroke is a very short short story designed to sexually arouse its readers. Those are my opinions, anyway.
