Saunders' "Sticks" is one of my go-to flash fiction recommendations. https://www.unm.edu/~gmartin/535/Sticks.htm

I've been writing short stories all year and it's a great challenge. It's quite different from writing code. https://conorbarnes.com/stories

I have a folder of a dozen or so short stories that I like to write as a distraction when code gets too...rigid?

It's a wonderful hobby that takes very little effort and becomes it's own reward.

Never shared anything though.
