Flash Clash Challenge: Day #8

Happy Monday folks and welcome to the latest update in my ongoing Flash Clash challenge. I had planned on continuing through the weekend on this challenge but then I got landed with an iPad (courtesy of the wonderful Mrs. Rob) and…em…well any plans of weekend blogging were thrown to the winds. Does this mean that I like the iPad better than this flash fiction challenge? Absolutely not! It’s just a ‘boys with their new toys’ kind of thing . Anyway here’s today’s rundown:

Author	Collection	Story Title	*Comment	Rating
Nik Perring		Pacifier	Amatory	Rating:
Alex Burrett		Genghis Brown	Gross	Rating:
Etgar Keret		The Flying Santinis	Ouch!	Rating:
**David Gaffney		Heavy Java Guy She’s Really Alt-Country	Dull Fair	Rating: Rating:
***Dan Rhodes		Faithful Features Fight	Hilarious Average Rowdy	Rating: Rating: Rating:

*Keeping in the spirit of flash I’m limiting myself to only giving single-word comments for each story.
**As they are incredibly short in length, David Gaffney’s stories are being ‘ticked off’ two at a time.
*** Dan Rhode’s stories are even shorter than Gaffney’s and to ensure that I finish his collection in time, I have to cover three per day.

Inspired by the publication of Nik Perring’s debut flash fiction collection, the Flash Clash Challenge is a fun contest in which three four other experts in the field are compared alongside Nik. You can find out more about it HERE.
