Bartleby Snopes Press Flash Novels A project of Bartleby Snopes (see other related projects). Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (January 2017). We provide the following information as an archive. About We want your best flash novel. We want quality fiction that grabs us and doesn't let go. Make us feel like we've read a whole novel (but in about a tenth the time). We view the flash novel as more than just a longer story. Don't think of it as a collection of flash stories that make up a novel.
