Cynthia is the author of “On Becoming Women,” which will be included in our upcoming anthology, SmokeLong Quarterly: The Best of the First Ten Years.
About:
Cynthia Larsen lives in southern Vermont with her husband and three daughters. Her work won the WOW! Flash Fiction Contest and the Binnacle Ultra-Short Competition, and has appeared in PANK, Vestal Review, SmokeLong Quarterly, Black Heart Magazine, and others.
Some favorite flashes:
“Everyone Continued to Sing” by Josh Denslow
“What Manner of Triumph” by Leslie Jill Patterson
Deal breaker:
Don’t use big fancy words–put everyday words together in unexpected ways. Give me a
character that finds her way into my head when I’m trying to sleep.
