This resource is being developed in conjunction with the 2019 AWP Conference Panel "A Flash of Diversity" (https://www.awpwriter.org/awp_conference/event_detail/14213) as a resource for readers, writers, and teachers of flash fiction who want to diversify their reading lists and syllabi.
2
The areas of diversity we are seeking to amplify include race, ethnicity, nationality, sexual identity/orientation, and disability, as well as other marginalized voices.
