Flash Fiction Online is the first online magazine dedicated to professionalizing flash fiction in its own right. Flash fiction is loosely defined as stories of 1,000 or fewer words, although publishers vary. Many magazines accept flash fiction and are considered professional by organizations such as the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, but they are not dedicated to flash fiction.

  • Flash Fiction Online is the first online magazine dedicated to professionalizing flash fiction in its own right. Flash fiction is loosely defined as stories of 1,000 or fewer words, although publishers vary. Many magazines accept flash fiction and are considered professional by organizations such as the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, but they are not dedicated to flash fiction. Several magazines, such as Vestal Review, Flash Me, and SmokeLong Quarterly, are dedicated to flash fiction, but are not considered professional by the SFWA, regardless of the high quality of their content. Publication in Flash Fiction Online now counts as credit toward full membership in the SFWA, a status granted in February 2009. Flash Fiction Online pays professional rates for flash fiction and is not a vanity press. Other milestones needed before achieving professional status include consistent publishing for a year (a milestone it reached with its November, 2008 issue) and circulations of 1,000 subscribers or equivalent. In addition, it is publishing professional writers, including Bruce Holland Rogers, Eric Garcia, Dave Hoing, James Van Pelt, Carl Frederick, Bruce McAllister, Mike Resnick, and Jay Lake. The Bruce Holland Rogers story, "Reconstruction Work", won the first annual Micro Award in 2008. In addition, Bruce Holland Rogers began a column on writing the short-short form starting in June 2008. One other distinguishing feature of Flash Fiction Online is its desire to print genre fiction as well as literary fiction. Flash Fiction Online ranked 14th for Fictionzine on the 2007 Preditors & Editors poll; artist-in-residence R.W. Ware ranked 6th for artist. It has also been noted on CNN in relation to short-short stories, and for "showcasing the talents of writers like Bruce Holland Rogers."
