Have you ever seen a Storybird?

Flash Fiction 2.0: using Storybird to write short-short stories

Sat, September 22, 9am SLT (5pm London Time)

Learn how to use Storybird to create (and share) short-short stories with beautiful illustrations. If you already use Storybird, share your stories with us.

Presentation about Storybird will be given using voice and shared media (web on a prim). In order to have a good experience at this event, we suggest you use V3 or Firestorm.

Flash Fiction: Write and Share. Saturday, Sept 22, 3am SLT

Flash Fiction: Write and Share. Saturday, 3am SLT.

Write a short-short story in one hour.
Alone. Collaboratively. You choose.

There will be a story prompt, but you don't have to use it.
Story prompts are objects, sometimes mesh items. V3, Phoenix, and Firestorm work fine with mesh.

V3 and Firestorm also support shared media, aka 'web on a prim', which is used on Flash Fiction Cafe's laptops. Using one of these viewers is advisable to ensure the best possible experience at this event.

Sharing what you write is optional, and should be done using notecards.
Feedback is also optional, using local chat.
Sharing and feedback will take place during 30 minutes, after the initial 1 hour writing session.

Participants may submit their short-short stories for publication on the Flash Fiction Writers blog.

Confused about Second Life Time (SLT)? Hope this will help:

3am SLT = 11am London / 12 Noon Paris / 1pm Helsinki / 2pm Moscow / 3:30pm Mumbai/ 5pm Jakarta / 6pm Hong Kong / 7pm Tokyo / 8pm Sydney

Beyond Flash: Singh Albatros reads from his novel 'Ghosts on a Bumboat'. Reading Sessions Start September 7, 7am SLT

Singh Albatros, the well known and talented musician, poet and writer, will read from his new novel, 'Ghosts on a Bumboat', on Fridays and Sundays, 7am SLT, at Flash Fiction Cafe, on Book Island.

'Ghosts on a Bumboat' is an amazing story that will capture your imagination:

Singapore. When Ralph Drummond steps on a curbside Hungry Ghost Month offering he collapses into a coma. Will he survive the psychic battle when the Gates of Hell open? Can his wife Winnie and their new Singapore friends Alvin and Fay save him? What is the Water Clan and who is the Geomancer?
Narrated by a golden carp, this magic realist novel draws on Chinese, Malay and Indian traditions in the South-East Asian megalopolis where ghost tales are still the powerful underbelly of the popular imagination.

Join us on this literary adventure!
