I'll check out the Shelton's piece.
There were two books that initially got me started on Flash Fiction, quite a number of years ago:
1) "Flash Fiction," edited by James Thomas
2) "Wearing Dad's Head," by Barry Yourgrau
And two main authors, whom I devoured:
3) Clark Ashton Smith
4) Lord Dunsany
I recently discovered the very few but wonderful prose poems by Donald Wandrei, located in this collection of mostly short stories. The prose poems are at the end of the book:
"Don't Dream"
