The Art of Prose

Prose is a form of written language that follows the flow of speech and basic grammatical structure. Most conventional pieces of literature are written in prose, including fiction, memoir, and prose poetry.

Flash Fiction

Flash fiction is any fiction piece that does not exceed 1,500 words. These are still complete stories with understandable plots.

Memoir/Personal Essay

Tell YOUR story. Memoirs and personal essays are meant to say something about you or your experiences. Subject matter can include any topics the writer is interested in but must exclude extremely graphic, offensive, or violent content.

Review

Critical reviews or analyses of published work are written in a quasi-journalistic style and are meant to inform readers on the literary merits of a piece. Writing is subjective, and we encourage you to voice your opinions!
