Flash Fiction with Jenny Irish

In this 90-minute generative workshop, we will look at examples of flash fiction and prose poetry, as well as consider the potential for fluidity across them. Participants will start three drafts inspired by the examples we read together. We’ll also share some of our work and receive exercises to take home to work on independently.

Jenny Irish is from Maine and lives in Arizona. She is the author of the hybrid collections Common Ancestor and Tooth Box, and the short story collection I Am Faithful. She teaches creative writing at Arizona State University and facilitates community workshops every summer.
