Hint Fiction

Recently I found out about a site called Hint Fiction.  The definition from their site is:

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

They ran a contest and even have anthologies of Hint Fiction.  If you go to their site, you can read some examples. I decided to participate, along with other members of my writing group and it was so much fun!  I think I will have to get an anthology because they are addictive to read too.



Here are my entries (titles don't add to word count):

Life Sentence

"Great pie, honey, sure you don't want some?"
"No, I'm full."
He clutches his chest.
She smiles.
Her life sentence is almost over.


I'm Not Sorry

She ripped the necklace off her neck, ready to throw.
It sparkled in the moonlight.
She pushed him over the edge instead.

Any other creative types out there?  I would love to read you Hint Fiction!
