PRLog -- The
Best Microfiction anthology series makes its worldwide debut on April 17, 2019.
This new series provides recognition for outstanding literary stories of 400 words or fewer. Co-edited by award-winning microfiction writer/editor
Meg Pokrass, and Flannery O'Connor Prize-winning author
Gary Fincke, the anthology features the well-known novelist and short story writer
Dan Chaon serving as final judge, an exclusive craft-oriented interview with the great Etgar Keret, and an essay about the current state of microfiction written by Robert Scotellaro. The inaugural edition,
Best Microfiction 2019, features eighty seven of the world's best very short stories.
Frederick Barthelme calls it "A terrific collection of ultra-short stories--complex, thrilling, sometimes just crazy-nutball, in the best possible way! Huzzah!"
In his essay, Robert Scotellaro says, "These are small, arresting stories that cut right to the heart of the matter, demonstrating that a story well told, no matter how small, expands beyond the space it inhabits."
