I didn't know that creating a flash fiction is this hard. It's like jamming a whole idea into something under 1000 words. There must be a fine balance between word count and details and to be frank I need help on this :)

It's very hard actually, but at the same time it's very exciting. I love drawing, can I help you on something? :)

As someone who wrote a flash fiction before, I know it can be very hard. I have mine somewhere on this computer. Wrote it for college. While it was fun, it really caused my mind to "exercise." The best advice I was given? Write the beginning and then the very end. Fill in everything else in between. That helped a lot.

Thanks for the tip, and what I liked about flash fictions is the challenge.

I never wrote flash fiction and never knew it could be so hard.

At least it's hard for me. It's a fine balance of word count and details. So far non of my stories succeeded, at least for now.
