Meg Pokrass is the editor for BLIP (formerly Mississippi Review) and an award winning flash fiction author.Blurbs for Meg Pokrass's "Damn Sure Right" (Press 53) and "Modalities":"Meg Pokrass writes like a brain looking for a body. Wonderful, dark, unforgiving."-- Frederick Barthelme"Meg Pokrass' flash fiction conveys entire worlds that are touching, haunting, funny, moving and strange in the most beautiful ways."--Jessica Anya Blau, author of Drinking Closer to Home"In every story, there is something lovely, quirky, or funny; usually, all three of those elements simultaneously work together to create an effect that is resonant of Pokrass's work."-- Cynthia Reeser, Founder and editor of Prick of the Spindle and Aqueous Books, and author of Light and Trials of Light"Meg Pokrass is the new monarch of the delightful and enigmatic tiny kingdom of micro- and flash fiction. If you want to get close to a definition of this hard-to-define, endlessly variable new form, just read Pokrass' own stories. It's all there."-- Brad Watson, Assoc. Professor of Fiction, University of Wyoming MFA Program, and author of Aliens in the Prime of Their Lives"Pokrass' work knocks you out your chair. It's a knockdown--and she does this piece after piece. Her language blasts away. The two varied directions in the book complement, bridge, balance the whole, and for the reader, that's the marvelous discovery. Pokrass always wows, always makes the reader feel uneasy--in a brilliant, almost cinematic way--story after story. Surprise and wit are her weapons."-- Sam Rasnake, author of Inside a Broken Clock and founding editor of Blue Fifth Review"Meg Pokrass writes with a passion, humor and a dream-like vividness that is equal parts engaging and addictive. No one this side of Amy Hempel is more capable of saying more with a handful of well-chosen words, and no one, any side of anyone is better at stretching language into such brilliant new hallucinatory shapes."-- Grant Bailie, author of Cloud 8 and Mortarville"I keep reading Meg's work everywhere. She is the brew master of flash."--Sean Lovelace, Professor of Creative Writing, Ball State University, author of How Some People Like Their Eggs"Read Damn Sure Right, a collection of miniature tales sure to ruin your waking hours the way you'll want them ruined."-- Kyle Minor, author of In the Devil's Territory
