Collected Stories from Contests and Events 2014
A Collection of flash fiction.
During 2014 I entered a few writing contests, and submitted to many events.
Here you will find all my submissions from the year including the prize-winning story Julie's Problem. Some are humorous, some serious, a few might come as a surprise to anyone who has read my Flashes of Light collections.

Christine Brand
Christine Brand - Author of short stories, flash fiction and #vss.I began self-publishing in January 2014. Starting with a short story I found I liked writing flash fiction.I have been writing for myself for many years, but it is only now that I found the courage to share my work with the world. I have also written some poetry and am working on a novel. I have five short eBooks - all available to download free from Smashwords.com and other online retailers. During 2014 I also tweeted "Very Short Stories" (#vss) on Twitter, and collected these, with illustrations, into three eBooks.From South London / Surrey, I served seven years as a Medical Assistant in the Royal Air Force, then worked for the NHS. I am now an administrator. I am also a voluntary member of staff with the Royal Air Force Air Cadets.I enjoy writing, painting and other creative crafts and I create my own cover art.
