A word of advice: whatever you post must be 'something to discuss' and not just a story (as you will see in the Guidelines when you have time to read them). Also, people here are in a hurry (well most are) so if they are short you will get readers. If they are longer than short then you might be disappointed. Good luck!

I don't know about that. If the story is interesting enough I'll read to the end even if it's long. You don't want it too short that people will read and run, and you won't get much money from it because they weren't on the page long enough.

@connierebel Thanks, I'll make sure the length is enough, but not too long. I want people to read and enjoy. It would be nice to think I can earn the odd cent or two too, but I really just want people to read the differing styles &narrations of my stories.

@connierebel I guess that you are part of the others and not of the 'most' that I mentioned above

@TheRamblingMan The worst thing that could happen is nothing. You will soon learn whether they are successful, or not.

And if you write about flashing in the fiction story, it might be deleted! :D

@TheRamblingMan In the stories I write, flashing is the least of what's happening! I've always thought it too bad that I can't share some of those. But now I do over on Amazon. :D

I tend to read short stories and I wouldn't see any problem with posting them on here.

I don't read much fiction, so I really don't know what flash fiction is. About the only fiction I read is fanfiction for my favorite TV shows. But I think it would be a good idea to try a couple stories and see what kind of response you get.

@connierebel, Maybe I can make a reader of you! I write about emotion, the hopes, fears, dreams, sadness, happines and anger people feel. I would love to know what you, as a basicly 'non-reader, thinks of my tales.

The flash? Hmmmm if it is good and you will write it exciting in not so long post... Maybe a lot can read and comment to that.
I guess a little hint of discussion at the end of the story parts will make a lot of readers interacts. And if you get the while attention of the readers you. Might extend your writing in every discussion. God bless and it is just a suggestion.
