The Official NFFD 2024 Roadmap<\/h4>\n
The UK’s National Flash Fiction Day starts at 00:01 BST on Saturday, 15 June 2024. Here’s your handy guide to what’s happening when….<\/em><\/div>\n
\n

Read with us!<\/h3>\n

For 24 hours straight starting at 00:01 BST on Saturday, 24 June, FlashFlood<\/a><\/em>, NFFD’s curated online journal, will be publishing one flash every 5 to 10 minutes over at NFFD.\u00a0<\/em> Check in at half past the hour every hour from start to finish for our Debut Flash Series \u2014 new stories written by previously unpublished flash writers.<\/p>\n

We’ll also be launching the 2024 National Flash Fiction Day Anthology, Tiny Sparks Everywhere<\/em>, edited by Karen Jones & Sara Hills.\u00a0 You can pre-order it in our Bookshop<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Write with us!<\/h3>\n

Over at NFFD\u2019s sister project The Write-In<\/a>, we\u2019ll be posting a flash prompt every hour on the hour from 00:00 \u2013 24:00 BST on National Flash Fiction Day. You’ll then have 24 hours to submit your responses for a chance of publication. Publication of responses begins on 16 June 2024 and doesn’t finish until the team is done reading through all the wondrous things you send us.\u00a0 Due to the ever-growing number and quality of submissions, The Write-In is now submitting award nominations.<\/p>\n

Learn with us!<\/h3>\n

This year, we have not one but two fantastic online workshops.\u00a0 Both are free, but spaces are limited so you’ll need to book in advance.<\/p>\n

15 June, 9-10 a.m. BST: Audrey Niven<\/strong> is running a free one-hour workshop based around the prompts at The Write-In.\u00a0 You can find out more and sign up here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

15 June, 11 a.m. – 12 noon BST: Anita Goveas<\/strong> is offering even more flash fiction inspiration.\u00a0 You can sign up here<\/a> to participate.\u00a0 For those who can’t make it, we’ll publish a video of this workshop after the event.<\/p>\n

Celebrate with us!<\/h3>\n

We’re celebrating live in Birmingham with free in-person workshops, a panel and the launch of the 2024 Anthology, Tiny Sparks Everywhere.\u00a0 The timetable is here<\/a>.\u00a0 We’re sold out, but we’ll release any returns as soon as they come through here<\/a>.\u00a0 Or, if you’re nearby, feel free to contact us<\/a> for any eleventh-hour spaces.<\/p>\n

Connect with us!<\/h3>\n

As usual, we’ll be posting all our prompts and FlashFlood stories on Twitter @nationalflashfd<\/a> and will be around on Facebook at facebook.com\/nationalflashfictionday<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What are you planning for NFFD?<\/h3>\n
If you’re running something flashy on or near National Flash Fiction Day, do let us know<\/a> so we can spread the word.<\/div>\n

Huge thanks…<\/h3>\n
Huge thanks to all the volunteers who help make this happen, and to everyone who has submitted work to our projects, joined in at home, and chatted with us on Twitter.\u00a0 We hope you’ll enjoy this weekend full of reading, writing and celebrating flash.<\/div>\n
