Something fun (and lucrative) to try.

I was checking out The Mark on the Wall when I found a link to submission guidelines for - get this - a Norton Anthology of Hint Fiction.

Here is the first part of the post:

Tentatively scheduled for the fall of 2010, W.W. Norton will publish an anthology of Hint Fiction. What is Hint Fiction? It’s a story of 25 words or less that suggests a larger, more complex story. The thesis of the anthology is to prove that a story 25 words or less can have as much impact as a story 2,500 words or longer. The anthology will include between 100 and 150 stories. We want your best work.


Other things worth noting is that they're paying $25 for each story - with a limit of two submissions. Or you could submit three, if you're like me, and linked the guidelines to your blog or twitter, just like I'm doing right... now.
