If you wish to be a writer, you must develop your own point of view. All good writers make
us see things in a different light. You may be writing about the same things as your
colleagues, but your presentation must reflect your personality and individuality. There are
so many interesting subjects you can write about in different forms but here we will try to
attempt writing short stories. There is a good market for the following types; the humorous
stories, the adventurous stories, the domestic stories, the mysteries and stories related to
animals and strange experiences. Don’t worry if your story turns out to be very short – some
of the best stories are quite short. Be very careful about the climax or end of the story. It
must be what the reader fears, desires, expect or best of all doesn’t expect. So, get down to it.
Think of a plot-make points on how the story will progress and pen it down.

a. You must have a pen and paper b. You must have a degree in writing
