Dearest reader: If you're like me--that is, if you pride yourself on having learned once to read; if, in fact, the thought of yourself as not just literate but 'literary' gives you an inner glow of superiority; but if, in the passage of time, your attention span has proved barely sufficient to read the instructions on a package of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese--then you will probably enjoy Flash Fiction, a collection of very short stories. (Maximum length: 750 words.) Some of the stories are great; almost all are good; very few are bad; and all of them are over in four pages or less.

Sorry, what was that again? You lost me shortly after "dearest reader"...

I get pretty worried about how short my attention span has gotten these days.

Excuse me, I have to go and check mail again. Then check my MOO window, code a little, then check LJ again, check e-mail, check LJ, check MOO, open another minimize window for no reason, check MOO window, check mail again, get a drink of water, open an old mail message to stare blankly at it, look at the clock, stare at my code some more, oh look -- baubles, check e-mail, mm -- lunch.
