I have been thinking of Flash Fiction writing the last few days and I worked out what I think is a good way to make sure that the story is complete. I took the M.I.C.E. Quotent idea and adapted it. M.I.C.E is Milieu, Idea, character, Event. Which one ismostprominentdetermins the type of story.

A flash fiction using the M.I.C.E. has:
1) Setting
2) Idea
3) Characters
4) Resolution
at the minimum. I adapted the M.I.C.E. to it. I came up with my own M.I.C.E. questions.

M (ilieu) - Where does it happen?
I (ncident) - What happens?
C (haracters) - Who is involved?
E (nd) - How does it end?

If you don't have answers to those basic questions you don't have a story, flash or otherwise.
