We’d like to thank Nazifa Islam for the fabulous header art. Nazifa grew up in Novi, Michigan and received her B.A. in English from the University of Michigan. Her poetry and paintings have appeared in a number of publications, including Anomalous Press, splinterswerve, and Flashquake. Her debut poetry collection searching for a pulse is forthcoming from Whitepoint Press. She frequently updates her blog Thoughts Interjected and is currently pursuing a Master of Fine Arts in poetry at Oregon State University.

First off, what a fun-fun idea. Love it. Second off, the art is fabulous. Nasifa is amazing! Okay so I’m going to go for this (creating a ton of source material this month at StoryADay) and promote where I can!!! Gay

What a great idea this contest is. I need to get busy notifying friends over at Thinking10 and 6S. They toil every day of the year to produce fresh flash.
