A short story is a compact piece of fictional writing that unfolds a complete narrative within a limited word count. It often centers around a specific incident, character, or theme, creating an impactful experience in a concise format.
Despite its brevity, a short story has the power to evoke strong emotions, provoke thought, or convey a deep message. It is structured to grab readers’ attention quickly and often leads to a climax or a moment of revelation.
Writers use vivid imagery, well-defined characters, and focused plots to immerse readers, leaving them with an unforgettable impression or insight into human nature.
