A narrative short story is a brief fictional work that tells a complete story, focusing on character development, plot, and a specific theme or message. Typically ranging from 1,000 to 7,500 words, it employs literary techniques such as dialogue, imagery, and conflict to engage readers.
The narrative often centers around a protagonist facing a challenge or conflict, leading to a resolution that reveals deeper insights about life or human nature.
These stories can explore various genres and styles, allowing for creativity while maintaining a structured format that encapsulates a compelling experience within a limited space.
