What is a "short story"?
A short story is a brief work of fiction that typically focuses on a single incident, character, or theme. It is shorter than a novel, often ranging from a few hundred to about twenty thousand words. Short stories aim to deliver a complete narrative with a clear beginning, middle, and end, usually concentrating on a specific moment or aspect of a character's life. They can explore various genres and styles, and are designed to provide a concise yet impactful reading experience.
