Am I the only one who loves short stories? · 11:38am Jun 4th, 2013
I think short stories are magical. If you are a busy person and don't have enough time to read a 300 page novel, you can just read a short story. If I was going to be an author for a living, I would write short stories. True story, bro. My eyes skip over details in a story, or I just end up speed reading through the whole thing, not really minding if I miss a minor event in the book. Perhaps this is why I am not good at comprehension questions in English class. Eheh....
On another note, I would like to improve my writing skills drastically over the next few months. A few major things I need to work on are:
-Pacing. I want to pack everything into as little space as possible. Maybe it's a personally quirk? But I gotta work on it.
-Details. I am not a detail oriented person. I do not notice details unless it's about someone's appearance or something like that.
