Every time I think I've got this writing thing figured out, someone throws me for a loop. I've heard of flash fiction, twitter/tweet fiction, but hint ficton? What's that?

Here's the definition according to Robert Swartwood:

hint fiction (n) : a story of 25 words or less that suggests a larger, more complex story

Robert is looking for stories that meet this criteria for an upcoming anthology to be published by W.W. Norton. Guidelines can be found here.

Now, excuse me while I give this form of storytelling a try :)
