I was so shook, I kept refreshing my browser to give @quitewriteed & @akscotland time to be like, oops! That was a mistake! Even after listening to the @notquitewrite podcast! I am so beyond honored!! Thank you SO MUCH!!

Hmm ok @notquitewrite story #222373. You're well written. You use the prompts in inventive ways and you have emotional resonance. You might make LL. However, I'd love to have seen a lighter, less gimmicky touch on the title. Not the end of the world, but titles are important!

Longlisted in NQW!! I had so much fun not killing my darlings!
And I got a shout-out from Ed at 1hr 29 mins - sorry Ed, Maisey didn't kill her husband in *this* story ;)

Don't know why I'm sharing this further 😅 but worth a listen to find out everything I should have done differently with my #notquitewrite #flashfiction submission. Why did I agree to this? 😂 Seriously... thanks Ed and Amanda for your honest (brutal) feedback.

@SarahVKen comes under fire as our second Daredevil for the October round of the #NotQuiteWritePrize for #FlashFiction 😈
Sarah bravely volunteered to have her story picked apart by the judges on air.
Not all the wine in the world will save you now, Sarah!

I’ve been longlisted in the July 2024 Not Quite Write flash fiction competition! Last month, approximately 200 writers from all over the world crafted a 500-word fiction story in 72 hours. This was fun!

Way past my bedtime, and in just about the nick of time, I have at last wrangled my #notquitewrite entry into submission
Phew! 😅
That was a tricky one! 🤣

Hi #BeautifulSouls hope everyone is lovely. Must say, feeling a little dejected today despite the sun shining on the cold streets outside. I didn’t make the longlist for the #NotQuiteWrite Prize, the #GiganticSequins comp, or the #NationalFlashFictionDay MicroFlash shortlist.>

Big respect to those latecomers still arriving at the #NotQuiteWrite party! The 24 hour handicap has dampened neither their confidence nor enthusiasm 💪🏻

#NotQuiteWrite co-host and judge, Amanda, putting her money where her (motor) mouth is 👏🏻
Check out @EllipsisZine back issues for more glorious short, short fiction.

Just found out that a story I wrote for @WritersCentreAU #FuriousFiction will be published in the final issue of @EllipsisZine
I think this might be my first fiction published in print (if you don’t count the self-pubbed Hanson fan fic!)
Exciting! 👏🏻
