Pas de Deux

Flash fiction (also known as short shorts) is the short version of the short story.  Do you want to read literature more often, but only have about 60 seconds a day to devote to it?  Well then, short shorts are probably the form for you.

Following is an excerpt from a short short entitled “Pas de Deux” written by Claire Rudy Foster:

“I only get to say her name once before she steps into me, up onto her tiptoes and bites my lip, soft then hard so I can feel her incisors making impressions of themselves.”

Published in the online literary journal Toasted Cheese, you can read the story here.
