Writing short stories

I love short stories, reading them and writing them. They have a very varied spectrum in terms of type and genre, as much as any other form of writing or story. They might describe an entire event, or the impact on just one individual. They can reflect just a moment in time from a lifetime of events, which is my favourite sort to write. They don't have a build up just an event, or an encounter and they're over - gone; leaving us to work out what happened before and after, which may or may not be what the writer intended.

Some writers like to cross every t and dot every i, they describe everything and everyone, which is fine if you enjoy long descriptions. I prefer to let the readers populate all those things themselves, using just a skeleton or framework to hold the plot (my plots usually need all the help they can get) and let the reader do the rest.
