eight rules for writing a short story:
...

Cancel
Use the time of a total stranger in such a way that he or she will not feel the time was wasted.
...

Cancel
Give the reader at least one character he or she can root for.
...

Cancel
Every character should want something, even if it is only a glass of water.
...

Cancel
Every sentence must do one of two things—reveal character or advance the action.
...

Cancel
Start as close to the end as possible.
...

Cancel
No matter how sweet and innocent your leading characters, make awful things happen to them—in order that the reader may see what they are made of.
...

Cancel
Write to please just one person.
...

Cancel
Give your readers as much information as possible as soon as possible. To hell with suspense.
