Assembly of the 2017 National Flash Fiction Day anthology is well underway. The theme for this year’s anthology is Life As You Know It<\/b>.<\/span>

<\/span>We’re thrilled to announce that this year’s anthology will be called Sleep Is A Beautiful Colour,<\/span><\/i><\/b> taken from a brilliant and funny story by Helen Rye.<\/span>

<\/span>We’ve also managed to include a series of commissioned stories from a range of wonderful writers.

The full ‘line-up’ is below, with all the incredible stories you’ll be able to read.<\/span>

<\/span>We will be launching Sleep Is A Beautiful Colour <\/i>on National Flash Fiction Day (June 24th) at the UK’s first Flash Fiction Festival taking place in Bath.
