The Micro-Fiction Fan Fest’2017



                                                     The long and short of literature


Being hopeless lovers of wordplay, and not having enough of the beautiful musings that pop up on our screens day in day out, we are bringing together the best of the minds behind these words to one platform: India’s first ever Micro-Fiction Fan Fest.

To celebrate The Micro-Fiction Fan Fest (TMFFF), we have joined hands with those who have had the nation; especially the youth fall in love with their magical world of minimalistic expression. Flash fiction in the form of literature, music, poetry, et al has been ruling our mind space along with the digital space.

It’s time that Micro-fiction got its own platform and literati. We bring the long and short of literature to the youth instead of waiting for them to come to it and strive to make literature more accessible. Get to witness the first of its kind festival and experience the sheer brilliance with the country’s best.
