What is Short story?
The '''short story''' is a genre of literature. It is usually [[fictional]] [[narrative]] [[prose]] and tends to be more direct and less-detailed than longer works of fiction, like [[novel]]s. Short stories are closely related to oral (spoken) story-telling traditions and prose [[anecdote]]s. They all develop the story very quickly and come to a conclusion quickly too. Many authors today release their short stories together in a book, instead of one at a time. A short story can be written in only 10 words or less. {{lit-stub}} [[Category:Short stories| ]]
