2/ 24 Athenaeum at 1pm - Micro Fiction Gets Big: Why “1,000 words or less” is all the rage - by Nicholas Ozment

Join us on Wednesday February 24 at 1pm for a presentation by Nicholas Ozment of the WSU English Department.

Nicholas Ozment will give a brief history/overview of micro fiction and define the various types —“flash,” “sudden,” “hint” etc. His presentation will conclude with possible explanations for why the form has become so popular in the last decade. The “performance” part of the presentation will be the actual reading of examples (for instance, Hemingway’s story that was six words long).

The Library Athenaeum is located on the second floor of the Krueger Library, bluff side.
