Flash Fiction<\/strong>
\nThis area is devoted to short, short, short stories….we call these
\nFlashers…We already have developed the idea of Minibooks….these are
\nbooks generally 7 to 10 pages long that we have been presenting for ten years
\nnow…They are not junk!…The New York Times Book Review once said that
\nmost non-fiction books sum up their contents in the first seven to ten pages of
\nthe work…what are the rest of the pages all about? Mainly, so people can
\ncharge $25 dollars for the book…which is fine…but this is the twenty-first
\ncentury…we have social media…we have fake news…we don’t have a lot of
\ntime…we need ideas fast… we need them now…Our minibooks provide ideas
\nso you can grab them and help accelerate research thousands of times…These
\nare perilous times…and we need to devise new tools to deal with them
\nnow…speed is of essence… Minibooks have proved themselves to be an
\nimportant tool for helping to solve the problems of the twenty-first century.
\nNow we have fiction….flash, flash fiction…sometimes fiction is the best\u00a0way to communicate things…and again…we don’t have time to waste…
\nhere are our first nuggets…which were embedded in our science fiction book,
\nOmicron Blue…written way back in the late 1970s and early 1980s….and are
\nstill relevant today…<\/p>\n
