Summary

Have you ever wanted to write a short story, but had no idea where to begin? Have you looked for tips, hints, or advice about how to develop characters and plots without being able to be sure you're getting advice from the experts? Look no further than this guide here before you!

Carefully written from personal advice and experience based on years of writing, you can be sure you're getting first-rate information that will continually be of use, whether you're a full-time writer or just looking to first dip your toes into the world of writing.

This book contains information on the following: characters and developing them, plots, settings, dialogue, POV, conflicts, and several other subjects to build a basis. Once that basis is built, there are many other subjects to move on to, from how to win contests and get published or paid for your writing, guides on interesting subjects like meanings of colors, and much more! You will never find the information in the guide tiresome or overused, and it continues to be useful time after time.

Generic writing guide, not that great

This is basically a generic and not very original writing guide, very little detail specific to short stories. A couple of useful nuggets but not worth a whole Audible credit.
