A '''ficlet''' (also called a minific, short short, or quickfic) is a short fanfiction piece, usually five pages or less, or able to fit in the pace of one post on a message board. The creation of ficlets covering an assigned theme are frequently called for in [[Iron Chef]] competitions on [[PPMB]] and [[SFMB]]. The maximum word count of a ficlet, if such a thing were to be set, would probably be 1,000-2,000 words, at the low end for [[short story]] length.
A ficlet of 100 words or less is called a '''drabble'''. A ficlet of 200 words is called a '''double drabble'''.
Line 7:
Very short prose works such as the above are sometimes called '''flash fiction'''.
See [[novel]] for comparison.
