Information about your publication: | The world of literature nowadays is so diverse, open-minded and thriving in experimental works, that there doesn’t seem to be any single form of written art missing from it … you would think. But there is. The vignette. It?s rare for a literary magazine to accept the “vignette” as a publishable piece of literature. Why? Because it is not a ?proper story.? We beg to differ. So, what is a vignette? “Vignette” is a word that originally meant “something that may be written on a vine-leaf.” It?s a snapshot in words. It differs from flash fiction or a short story in that its aim doesn’t lie within the traditional realms of structure or plot. Instead, the vignette focuses on one element, mood, character, setting or object. It’s descriptive, excellent for character or theme exploration and wordplay. Through a vignette, you create an atmosphere. Vine Leaves, will entwine you in atmosphere; wrap you in a world where literature ferments and then matures ? |
