自從有了微博，身邊的很多事情都開始微博化了。熱愛織圍脖的同志們時(shí)不時(shí)還搞“微小說”創(chuàng)作比賽，看誰的小說寫得又短又有深度。在網(wǎng)上轉(zhuǎn)了一圈才發(fā)現(xiàn)，原來這并不是國內(nèi)圍脖愛好者獨(dú)創(chuàng)的，國外的文學(xué)愛好者們也愛寫“微小說”哦。
Hint fiction is an extremely short literary work, typically no more than twenty-five words, that hints at a longer, more complex story。
Hint fiction指極其簡(jiǎn)短的文學(xué)作品，基本不超過25個(gè)字，但卻隱含著一個(gè)更長更復(fù)雜的故事情節(jié)。
Those very, very, very, VERY short stories are all the reader is ever given. Just a hint. Not a scene, or a setting, or even a character sketch. They are given a hint, nothing more, and are asked — nay, forced — to fill in the blanks。
讀者看到的只是一個(gè)特別特別短的故事。這只是一個(gè)提示。不是場(chǎng)景，不是故事背景，也不是人物描寫。讀者讀到提示，然后需要自己去填充缺失的故事情節(jié)。
A hint fiction titled Progress:
After seventeen days she finally broke down and called him "Daddy."
