Unlock the Secret Editing Tricks That Can Transform Your Short Story Overnight
First thing: make sure your story is a story!
When I first started writing shorts, it was all nonsense. Halfway decent prose, but utter nonsense. There was no point. There was no character development. There was no climax. In short, I hadn’t written a story at all.
A short story is different from a novel. You don’t have time to ramble. But a short story is still a story and needs to read like one. It must contain all the elements I mentioned mine lacked. It must have structure. (Remember the six elements?) And it must have a beginning, middle, and end.
