Flash Fiction Critique

Please use our form to receive a thorough critique from one of Five South’s senior editors on one story 1000 words and under. 

Feedback will include line editing and general comments concerning voice, point of view, tone, and characterization. Critiques will be sent in a Word document with tracked changes. If you cannot utilize Word, please let us know ahead of time.

This price does not include a back-and-forth discussion with the editor.

Please let us know whether the story is fiction, creative non-fiction, or hybrid. All fiction genres are welcome.

Critiques do not guarantee consideration for publication. However, if we decide to long list your piece for the issue or The Weekly, we will let you know by email. We try to respond within 7 days.

After you pay, you will be automatically taken to a form where you will enter your information and submit your file. If you have any questions or encounter any glitches, please contact editor@fivesouth.net
