Character Analysis and Organic Writing: Interview of Kimberly Liu, Author of Issue 41 Story “I, Iris”

I think in the literature that I've read, sight as a bit of a metaphor for knowledge, for awareness, and for identity, is pretty well suffused and embedded into this collective recognition.

Working with Waves and Watercolors: Interview with Mikaela Kristianous, Artist of Issue 41 Piece Regarding the Sea

A Flash of Lightning and Heartbreak: Interview with Ashley Hutson, Sudden Fiction Guest Judge & Author of One’s Company

I feel like when you write flash, you're giving something to the reader, like an electric shock.

Breaking the Canon: Interview with K-Ming Chang, Sudden Fiction Guest Judge & Author of Bestiary

Something about flash fiction and short fiction is just so ripe with experimentation and with breaking boundaries and for kind of completely turning on its head what a story can look like.

On Craft and Contradictions: Interview with Jen Fawkes, Author of Mannequin and Wife

A few weeks ago, I sat down (virtually) with short story writer Jen Fawkes to discuss her debut story collection, Mannequin and Wife: Stories. We talked about the origin of her writing career, the ocean, and her goal of capturing the spectacular mundanity of everyday life through fiction.
