Brevity is an online journal,  publishing short narrative essays (750 words or less).

Employing strong verbs and using sensory detail increase chances of your writing being selected.

“There is no room for throat-clearing in search of a point. . . You need each sentence to do more than one thing . . . provide setting, forward the action and give insight into character, all at once.” Founder and editor Dinty W. Moore, interviewed by Kerrie Flanagan, The Writer August 2015

Information about using sensory detail can be found in the Just Write section on The Write Spot Blog.

Good Luck!
