Flash: The International Short-Short Story Magazine
Flash: The International Short-Short Story Magazine is a literary magazine founded in 2008 by Peter Blair and Ashley Chantler at the University of Chester. It publishes flash fiction, reviews and occasional essays of up to 360 words.

Unpublished, emerging and established writers from around the world have contributed flash fictions, including Booker Prize and Pulitzer Prize winners and nominees. Reviews have been published of flash-fiction collections, anthologies, craft guides, and critical studies. The magazine’s occasional ‘Flash Essays’ section has included snapshot analyses of flashes by significant authors such as Samuel Beckett, Kate Chopin, Jane Anne Phillips, and Virginia Woolf.

Flash organizes the National Flash Fiction Youth Competition (UK), founded in 2014.
