]]>By comparing odds from different betting sites, punters can increase their chances of winning by finding the best possible value for their bets. For example, if you are looking to place a bet on a football match and one bookmaker is offering odds of 2.00 on a particular outcome, while another bookmaker is offering odds of 2.10, it makes sense to place your bet with the bookmaker offering the higher odds. This way, if your bet is successful, you will receive a higher payout.
In addition to increasing your chances of winning, comparing odds can also help punters maximize their profits. Even a small difference in odds can have a significant impact on the overall profitability of your bets in the long run. By consistently choosing the bookmaker with the best odds, punters can ensure they are extracting the maximum value from their bets.
One way to make the process of comparing odds easier is to use odds comparison websites, which compile the odds from various bookmakers and present them in an easy-to-read format. These websites allow punters to quickly identify the best odds available for a particular bet, saving them time and effort.
In conclusion, comparing betting site odds is a crucial aspect of successful sports betting. By evaluating odds from different bookmakers, punters can enhance their chances of winning and maximize their profits. Utilizing odds comparison websites can streamline the process and help punters make informed decisions when placing their bets. Remember, betting should be seen as a form of entertainment, and it is essential to gamble responsibly. By comparing odds and making informed decisions, punters can enjoy the thrill of sports betting while increasing their chances of success.

The December tarmac’s glazing treacherous black. My mind should be on the road, not with my mother, left in the echoing house.
I take the roundabout too fast.
There it is, standing guard. I’ve never seen one here. No water, only frozen fields. Sentinel grey, crunched into its awkward bones, those quilling eyebrows. Unmistakable.
I hear his voice.
“Hamba gashle.”
“What’s that, Dad?”
“It’s Zulu. It means…”
I whisper it back as the light fades.
“…Go safely.”
I flip the visor against the falling sun.
Pheasant
We startle them into clattering flight. Survivors, seeing the New Year in against the odds.
One stays grounded, escorts us like a maverick sheepdog hitching a walk.
That look. “Dad?” Joking.
It stops. Its feathers glint rainbows in the iced light.
That sideways look. “Is that you, Dad?” Half-joking.
The absurd lens of grief.
Sparrowhawk?
Hard to tell. We pass so quickly.
Roadside perch. Sharp eyes scanning.
“What do I always say?”
“Keep your options open, Dad.”
Robin
On a clear day you can see the hills he loved from here.
This is not a clear day.
Every voice feels winter-stopped.
In the branches, a spot of red, defiant.
“The robin keeps singing right through the winter.”
Its sweet strain clarifies the clouded air.
“Very few birds do that, you know.”
The mist begins to lift, a little.
Goldfinch
The feeders have swung empty for months. We knock the nails in lower so Mum can reach, refill them with rich sunflower hearts.
“They’re back!”
From the kitchen window we watch a charm of gold glitter the garden.
Curlew
Spring loops in on that cool, clear call, back to breed on the hard, high moors.
“That day we found a nest, remember? The baby curlew? The parent bird circling overhead?”
The wind lifts heady scent from the greening woods, scatters blossom like confetti, accepts the ash we offer.
Skylark
You hear it first, notes like diamonds etching glass.
Lift your head. Turn your face to the full sun.
“Look long enough, you will see it.”
There, infinitesimal in the infinite blue.
Do you see him?
Yes! There! Rising, singing, rising…

For the Spring 2021 competition, we’re delighted to have Women’s Prize For Fiction 2019 longlistee Sophie van Llewyn as judge.
When the Reflex Fiction team were discussing how best we could serve the flash fiction community, we came up with two potential models:
What did we decide? Both, of course!
Reflex Fiction is a traditional flash fiction competition where entries are read and judged, a long-list created, winners selected, and prizes awarded. It is also a place to share and read fantastic flash fiction.
After the stories have been judged, and we’ve announced the long-list, we’ll publish one story each day as we count down to the publication of the third, second, and first placed stories.
Because the Reflex Fiction team are all flash fiction writers too, we know how difficult it can be to let go of a great piece of flash without placing in a competition. That’s why you can opt out of the open-submissions element of Reflex Fiction when you submit your story. Of course, we hope you’ll take part.
All long-listed stories where permission was given by the author will be published on the website. We’ll also publish some of our favourite stories that didn’t quite make the long-list. You can check the website daily at noon to see if your story has been published, or if you’re still in the running for a prize!
If having your story read, appreciated, and commented on by your fellow flash writers is not enough, we’ll also publish a relevant link of your choice with your story. This can be to your personal website or blog, social media profile, Amazon author page, published story etc. So long as it’s relevant to you, and we consider it appropriate for our readers, we’ll publish it with your story, increasing the exposure of you and your writing.
All long-listed entrants are offered the chance to be published in our yearly print anthology. All you have to do is tick the permission box when you enter your story. If your story is long-listed and published on our website, it will also be published in the print anthology. All featured authors will receive one free copy. Anthologies are published in April after the winners of the Winter contest have been announced.
Reflex Fiction is always open for entries and we are always counting down to the winner of a previous competition. Check our schedule page for the important dates for all live competitions.
To keep up to date with the latest Reflex Fiction competition you can subscribe by email to receive notifications when deadlines are looming, new competitions are open, long-lists are announced, and winners are published.
Flash fiction is a style of fiction defined by its brevity. While there is no single definition of flash fiction, an upper word limit of one thousand words is generally accepted. Here at Reflex Fiction, we like our flash on the short side. That’s why we’ve set a word limit of between 180 and 360 words for our competition. Why a lower limit? While we love very short fiction (For sale: baby shoes, never worn and all that), it’s very difficult to judge a six-word story against a 360-word story; they are two different animals.
If you’re new to flash fiction or are looking to improve your flash writing, there’s no better way to learn than reading and writing as much flash fiction as you can! To satisfy your flash reading requirements, we publish a new story on our website every day. You could also take a look at the writing tips we’ve compiled from some aficionados of the form. You can access all the stories we’ve published online via our story and author archive pages.
Reflex Fiction is organised by professional editor and amateur writer, David Borrowdale.

Thirteen Tips for Writing Flash Fiction, Flash Fiction Online
Perhaps the greatest asset for a flash writer is the ability to create character through voice. That skill is well worth exploring, and the best exploration is either through just doing it, or by reading what others do.
Vanessa Gebbie, Flash Fiction, Writers & Artists
How to write flash fiction:
- Start in the middle.
- Don’t use too many characters.
- Make sure the ending isn’t at the end.
- Sweat your title.
- Make your last line ring like a bell.
- Write long, then go short.
David Gaffney, Stories in your pocket: how to write flash fiction, The Guardian
When it comes to flash fiction you have to be clever. There will be instances where you will want to tell, instead of show. One sentence may be all you need to explain a sordid past as a stripper, hitman, or crooked banker. Think of the tip of the iceberg—show us that, but not the entire mountain of ice and snow.
Richard Thomas, Storyville: How to Write Flash Fiction, LitReactor
You only have room for one main character, so choose her well. What’s more, in a flash piece, this character has only one compelling need. Because flash fiction is about focus, all of her qualities focus themselves on supporting her single compelling need.
J Timothy King, 10 Flash Fiction Writing Tips, Be the Story
Common clichés that can mean a story lands in the reject pile:
- Cheap, throwaway, jokey twist endings.
- Earnest meditations on the meaning of life, with no plot or characters.
- Crazy surrealism for no purpose.
- Poems submitted as flash-fiction.
- Yet another story about suicide.
- Over-writing.
- Cheap sentiment.
- “Issue” stories, where the ending is supposed to teach us an important lesson.
- Strong stories with weak endings, where the writer seems to have lost courage.
Calum Kerr, Flash Fiction: What Not To Do, Litro
Writing short stories is about learning how little you need, about what isn’t written as much as about what is on the page. Flash fiction takes this to the extreme.
Tania Hershman, Want Tips from Short Story Author, Tania Hershman?, daily(w)rite
Try simplifying your story so that you focus on one idea or emotion.
Richard Thomas, Storyville: How to Write Flash Fiction, LitReactor
Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit,
And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes,
I will be brief . . .
“Hamlet” by William Shakespeare
If you obey all the rules you miss all the fun.
Katharine Hepburn
The best way to improve your flash fiction writing is to write more flash fiction and read more flash fiction! We publish a new flash fiction every day. You can also search for flash fiction stories by author.

]]>I don’t know how they knew we were English, our involuntary outpourings as we leapt and twirled unintelligible as a language. We didn’t care. We were indeed mad – mad with love, leaping and twirling at the joy of it.
We drank pastis from tiny glasses and cafe-au-lait from oversized cups, crammed croissants into our mouths, into each other’s mouths. We walked along the banks of the Seine where the gay couples sunbathe and let them check you out, although it was clear you were taken. We threw coins from bridges to ensure our return and spent afternoons in bed with the sounds of Paris a backdrop to our passion.
Back in England it couldn’t go on. There were bills and jobs and you forgot who we had been in Paris. I told you we were still those people, but you couldn’t see it. The winter brought a sharp chill that didn’t thaw through spring and summer and then it was autumn again.
I bought fresh croissants, pastis, tiny glasses and took them to your office, just to be mad again. I poured two shots and waited on a bench outside. There was a girl there, laughing and shouting in French as she ran among the trees that edged the car park, trying to catch a leaf.
The glasses slipped from my hand and shattered on the tarmac as I remembered that I’d never seen anyone do that in France and realised that someone must have taught her.
