Flash Fiction / Publication / Pittsburgh / Blogging

Pittsburgh is my Paris. Remember, even flash fiction needs to be grounded in a particular place. You know your home town. Use its flavor to flavor your stories. Don't let your stories take place in any/every town. The trick is to make your home town any/every town.

The think that matters is to describe something you know, knowledge beats always fantasy.
Great points.
