This is a type of narrative writing where a person writes a short story, usually between 100 and 500 words, and often to a prompt.

Flash Fiction

​A parody is a comedic misrepresentation of a work of literature. It often pokes fun at the absurdity or seriousness of the original text, allowing the audience to have a laugh at the text's expense. For example, parodies such as "Nightlight" and "Starving Games" make fun of the real stories Twilight and The Hunger Games. 

Parody

When people write fanfiction, they add onto a literary universe that already exists, imagining new characters, altered scenes, different endings...​

Fan Fiction

A memoir is a short narrative that relates one single memory from our lives; people usually write their memoirs when they are older, reflecting back on their formative years with a wizened perspective.
