How to Write Short Stories in 6 Easy Steps
Simple, Yet Hard ...

This book was created especially for the Kindle Singles program and has been submitted.

"Simple Blueprint for Short Story Success"

"Great short story about short stories"

"Brilliant book about how to write short stories"

The short story is deceptively simple to write but frustratingly hard to master. It requires the ability to distill an entire story--all of its emotion, character development, and action--into a few thousand words. Due to its length, writers do not have the luxury of a long buildup or character development. You have to do more with less.

That said, it is something you can learn.

This eBook contains creative exercises and a step-by-step guide to writing a short story. It also includes a "Practical Application" section for most of the steps, where you will develop a sample story of your own. You will generate a story idea, a character, and follow the steps outlined in the book to see how the steps are applied.

"The author gives clear step-by-step instructions on how to get started,
and how to develop a full-blow story in a small package. He explains not
only how to do this by why it is essential to write short stories in a
certain way for maximum impact."

Here's a peek inside the Table of Contents:
- Introduction
- Step 1:Begin at the Beginning
- Step 2: Write by the Numbers
- Step 3: Avoid the Droopy Middle
- Step 4: Keep Track of Dialogue and Gestures
- Step 5: Write a Satisfying Climax and Ending
- Step 6: Consider Your Space Constraints
- Things to Remember
This ebook focuses on just the writing process itself. Its intention is to allow you to see how it is done and to follow along. And by following the steps, to produce a short story of your own.

"To conclude, the book includes practice exercises - not some airy-fairy
academic waste of time, but real hands-on exposure to the development of
an actual short story. That alone is worth getting the book for."

There would subsequently be other phases the story has to go through before it can be published, but that would be another story for another day.
