Finally, the moment has arrived: we will now announce the Editors’ Choice winners for the IU Flash Fiction challenges from November and December 2017.
As you know, each week, the public gets to choose the Readers’ Choice winning entry by popular vote and the author is rewarded with a special feature on Saturdays. In the case of the Editors’ Choice winners, they garner a coveted spot in the first ever Indies Unlimited Flash Fiction Editors’ Choice Anthology. You don’t remember any of this? Well, you can refresh your memory by reading our rules.) Without further ado, here are the winning authors:
Congratulations to the following authors whose stories will be published in the anthology:

Again, congratulations to the authors above. Give us your best stuff, people – we want to see your names up there next time.
First, congratulations to all the editors’ choice winners. And thanks to the editors for choosing some of my stories this year. I also want to thank you for this wonderful website. Your weekly challenges have given me a much-needed shove toward restarting my long dormant creative efforts.
Second, congratulations, also, to the many readers’ choice winners. And thanks to all the writers who have contributed their wonderful stories. I have been entertained and intrigued by them all.
Although I know none of you personally, I feel like do know you by your stories. I’m glad to have joined this community of creative people and look forward to reading more of your work.
