About This Novel

The "shortness" of short stories is not only a characteristic of genre, but also an artistic style, which contains certain qualities that short stories can achieve but that novels cannot match. Only short stories can achieve perfection that is self-consistent, subtle and meaningful, and cannot be added or deleted. Compared with novels, short stories seem more like a mystery. This book is a collection of creative talks by 26 emerging British and American contemporary writers and creative writing teachers. It focuses on the mystery of short story writing - what is the essential difference between short stories and novels? Why is the structure and form of a short story important? What is unique about the language, plot, and author's voice of a short story? How to write a stunning short story? Different creators have different emphases when creating. This book will take us to travel, travel, explore the mysteries of short stories from different perspectives, and understand the most private writing skills of the most avant-garde and cutting-edge novelists.
