My fondness for short fiction is no secret. My love for Flash Fiction isn't either. It is amazing to me, how a story with so few words can sometimes be nothing short of dazzling.
I'm late getting around to Flash Fiction Online again this month and found August's offerings a little disappointing.
The online magazine has had better months, but among the also-ran stories, there is one little gem. It is a re-telling of the Tortoise and the Hare,a tale rife with political undertones and a wonderfully snarky ending. Ah, the power of "everybody says so!" and partisanship.
Here's where you can find it:
The True Story of the Tortoise and the Hare
