In Issue 27 of Creative Nonfiction, we published Writing It Short: The Best of Brevity - creative nonfiction pieces of 750 words or less. For PodLit #5, Lee Gutkind talks with Dinty W. Moore, founder and editor of Brevity, the online journal of extremely brief nonfiction.  Lee interviewed Dinty at this year's Association of Writers & Writing Programs Conference in Austin, Texas, where they discussed the challenge of writing brief nonfiction, the history and growing popularity of flash essays, and the writing process behind Dinty's new book, The Truth of the Matter: Art and Craft in Creative Nonfiction.
