Suggestion of story comes to writer in hut (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shack

'hut' is the definition.
(I know that hut can be written as shack)

'suggestion of story comes to writer' is the wordplay.
'suggestion of' says to take the initial letters (suggestion can mean a small amount of something).
'comes to' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'writer' becomes 'hack' (hack can mean a journalist).
The first letter of 'story' is 's'.
's'+'hack'='SHACK'

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for shack that I've seen before include "Crudely built hut" , "Rough dwelling" , "Crude dwelling" , "Roughly built hut" , "grim lodgings" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
