How To Write a Short Story
**UPDATE 2019 VERSION**

Writing short stories is a great way to test the waters of fiction without making a huge commitment, or to experiment with different genres, characters, settings, and voices.

Even if you’ve published a novel or two, it’s a good idea to try to release a few high-quality, well-edited short stories between books to help with discover ability and growing a fan base.

Also, today’s busy readers (especially the young ones) have more distractions and temptations for their time, therefore shorter attention spans, and they’re reading on smaller devices, so a short story is a nice escapism-byte for increasing numbers of people.

In order to write your short story, you will go through a series of steps: Pre writing, Drafting and Revision. Each of these steps will build upon each other to lead to your final short story.
Criteria:

 Develop strong characters
 Dialogue that will help reveal the characters
 Setting – the time and location of the story
 Story is told from a specific point of view
 Plot, or series of events that leads to the climax
 Use either foreshadowing or irony
 Theme that is revealed by the story’s end
 Write for a specific audience
 3 page (minimum)
 Use correct grammar, punctuation, etc.
 Use appropriate language
