Welcome to your spot for the latest free releases in flash fiction and nonfiction, consolidated in one place. I put the Roundup on Twitter every week, but if you want the latest in your inbox, drop your email into the field above or below.
Spring has sprung!
With too many new releases over the last week for one newsletter, I sent two Flash Roundups in the last week, including one with publications that went live on April 1 (if you missed it, check it out!) and the regularly scheduled Flash Roundup on Monday with full issue publications from last week.
There were so many spectacular single story releases in the last week (through Monday, April 5), too, that I’m dedicating a single issue to these lovelies.
I will admit that three issues of Flash Roundup in 10 days is a lot to produce, so next week we’ll return to just one, shorter email.
Enjoy!
Single story releases from...
(mac)ro(mic), TSS Publishing, Matchbook, Atlas and Alice, Fewer Than 500, Crow & Cross Keys, Okay Donkey, Fictive Dream, X-R-A-Y, Atticus Review, Spartan, Trampset, and Matter Press.

"There were boys whose names we couldn’t share. Boys whose names we’d seen taped inside other girls’ lockers. Boys whose hips were like rip tides. Boys with thirsty eyes."
"I can’t fix it. I can’t make its life workable. It has folded its remaining wing close to its body so it now resembles an ant, a long black ant. Is this a sign of resignation? Is it trying to be small? Does it feel..."
The Kraken has become history, myth, a caricature of itself.... The Kraken dreams the touch of tentacles on its skin, the elastic tease of other arms, a hint of warmth in the frigid sea.
