Hello all,<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Well, as you have hopefully noticed, today is a busy day here at NFFD Towers as we launch ourselves for this year’s Day – just 2 months away!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We have a FlashFlood journal running, publishing over a hundred flash-fictions across the day (http:\/\/flashfloodjournal.<\/wbr>blogspot.co.uk\/<\/a>). <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
And we have also announced the winners of the micro-fiction competition over on our website (http:\/\/<\/wbr>nationalflashfictionday.co.uk\/<\/wbr>competitions.html<\/a>) and blog (http:\/\/<\/wbr>nationalflashfictionday.<\/wbr>blogspot.co.uk\/2013\/04\/micro-<\/wbr>fiction-competition-2013-<\/wbr>results.html<\/a>). <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We had also hoped to brag about all the other things in pipeline, but we are currently having to reapply for funding, and attempt to source other funds to do the things we want to do. (If you have any ideas, please do send them through!) <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
But we’re not going to let that stop us though, and NFFD2013 moves on apace. Over the next week we are going to be updating the website with new author bios and details of events and competitions. So, if you haven’t already, please send through the details of what you are planning,and we’ll add them to the site.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Alternatively, if you haven’t yet thought about what you plan to do, then now is the time to start. Last year we had competitions, workshops, readings, slams, flash-mobs and loads more, so get your thinking\/organising caps on and let us know all about them.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We are also going to launch the ‘International’ part of the Day, so if you are outside the UK and wish to organise an event wherever you are, please let us know all about it.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We are also pleased to open our call for submissions for this year’s anthology. Last year we asked for one word stories, this year we’re changing it a little and asking for pieces which have been inspired in some way by other works of art – stories, books, films, music, art, photographs etc. The word limit is 500 and the deadline is May 17th. Submissions are welcome from all over the world. Full details can be found here: http:\/\/<\/wbr>nationalflashfictionday.co.uk\/<\/wbr>anthology.html<\/a>.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
And that’s it for now, except to thank you for all your hard work, and to encourage you to keep spreading the word about NFFD. Without your support and engagement, the day wouldn’t happen. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Until next time,<\/div>\n
All the best<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
