Short stories normally create mixed emotions. For example in form whenever we find out what book we would read. When we find out it’s a book compiled from short stories, you would be able to hear sighs or hoorays. But why is this, well some people might find they don’t go in-depth enough and only scratch the surface but, others may feel that since it is short stories that it would be fast-paced and get straight to the point.
Short stories can come in a mixture of ways: by itself, in a collection of other stories, or multiple short stories that are interlinked. An example of these are Look Both Ways , Being Various , Lamb to the Slaughter. For example, Look Both Ways is a collection of short stories that are interlinked. Whereas Lamb to the Slaughter is a short story that doesn’t need other stories to make sense. These both have their positives and negatives but they both set different moods and atmospheres. Whereas one is a more comedic piece the other is the polar opposite.
Short stories are able to create everlasting effect on people while only being able to use a limited amount of words making it incredibly hard to write. If you think you can create one the BBC have a Young Writers’ Award for short stories.
