Closely related to these written forms is the '''vignette''', a very short tale taking place over a very short period of time. The vignette consists of one scene that offers insight into a character, setting, or concept. Some have called it a literary snapshot. A vignette does not have a plot as such. Its purpose is to offer meaning, not action or plot development. If a character is involved, internal dialogue might also be present. Drabbles are quite often vignettes.
 
Very short prose works such as the above are sometimes called '''flash fiction'''.
